Removing assets from PowerProtect Data Manager

PowerProtect Data Manager automatically removes assets if certain conditions are met. However, some assets can be manually removed.

Assets are automatically removed if the following conditions are met:

  • The status of the asset is Deleted.
  • The asset has no backup copies.
  • The asset has existed for longer than the value of the asset TTL setting. This is 0 minutes by default, but it can be changed with the REST API. For more information, see PowerProtect Data Manager Public REST API documentation.
    NOTE This value has changed from earlier versions of PowerProtect Data Manager.

The manual removal of assets allows for the following increased control over the process:

  • The asset can be removed on demand.
  • The status of the asset can be Not Detected.
  • All protection copies of the asset, including replicated and cloud tiered copies, can be manually removed, followed by the manual removal of the asset.
  • All protection copies of the asset can be automatically removed, if this option is selected during manual asset removal from PowerProtect Data Manager,
