Hello all,
I'm thinking about migrating to PBS for on-site & off-site backup. While the connection between headquarters and branch office is relatively (very) slow, the backups have always lagged behind for some days (using copy job in Veeam). The lagging is not a problem while is ok that i have remote copy of at least one month old restore point.
My biggest concern is, and sadly i haven't stumbled upon the answer, is how the off site pbs server handles sync jobs in the case when the restore point on the on-site server expires/disappears/is removed (retention settings) - are the files locked during the sync interval?
The next thing is how the sync jobs are handled. Are data always copied in incremental manner and the merge & verification in done by remote pbs or are there also full backups done periodically?
