Geeks? Ha! if you only knew. . .
The purpose of SLP is a hugh concept one that you need to understand. This is
a great step towards Tiering your storage - or whatever you might like. Sounds
like more confusion? . . . wait there's more.
A Storage Lifecycle Policy is a pre-defined parameter assigned to a Storage
Unit Process - say it this way because while a storage unit collect the data
on some type of storage medium, the Life-Cycle part could mean that after x
number of days, I want the data on this Lifel-Cycle to be moved to a
lower-leve Life-Cycle of storage medium.
This kind of talk a few years ago was stuff new acrnyms were being made from.
In Netbackup, the SLP's a totally customizeable, the Platimun, Silve, Bronze
are just canned names to give you something to start with.
They're really a way to defins a way to teir your backup storage data.
You might back up to disk, then after 1 week, move it off to tape delete the
date off the disk. A month later, then data might get moved to some other
lower-lifecycle storage.
Make sense?
