Hi, This has plagued me for a while… [ and while it sounds a lot like a home work question… its actually just be being curious and reaching out :) ]
Imagine a scenario similar to this: You have a file based storage array available with a capacity of say 6 TB, and you have to back up 20 clients. Lets say I’m going with the default Full/Diff/Inc weekly schedule and that I’ve had an arbitrary retention time of 1 year on fulls 6 months on diffs and 1 month on incrementals. What strategies would you employ to manage disk space, estimate growth etc. I guess there are a few scenarios 1 : eventually you will find out that your arbitrary limits are just not possible to accomplish with given diskspace. OR 2: it will work fine and things will get recycled fine. Is there a good way to plan ahead? Thanks! Jeff.
