Scheduling Best Practices ​
WARNING
NFS backup scheduling is a beta feature available only per request for SAP-internal teams.
To create backups at specified intervals, use the NFS backup scheduling. To use the feature effectively, follow the scheduling best practices:
- Configure the
MaxRetentionDays,MaxReadyBackups, andMaxFailedBackupsattributes on the schedule to auto-delete the oldest backups when any of these thresholds are exceeded. - Create multiple backup schedules with different frequencies to reduce the number of backups and increase the coverage of the backup period. For example, to create a backup plan for 10 years, you can configure some or all of the following schedules:
hourly schedule with max retention period of 1 daydaily schedule with max retention period of 7 daysweekly schedule with max retention period of 35 daysmonthly schedule with max retention period of 365 daysyearly schedule with max retention period of 3650 days
