What happens if storage runs out before the retention policy can delete old backups?

If storage becomes full before the retention policy can delete old backups, new backup jobs may fail due to insufficient space. BDRShield logs such issues and sends notifications to alert administrators. To prevent this, it is important to:

  1. Regularly Monitor Storage: Use the reports and monitoring tools in BDRShield to track storage usage trends.
  2. Optimize Retention Policies: Configure retention policies to balance storage utilization and data retention needs.
  3. Expand Storage: Plan for additional storage as your data grows to avoid disruptions.
