Issue/Introduction
When editing the schedule of an existing VLCR (VMware Live Cyber Recovery) protection group with new Daily schedule and the retention period (Keep snapshots for) in hours, the message "The minimum retention for the Daily schedule is 2 days." is displayed and can not complete the editing.
Environment
VMware Live Cyber Recovery 9.0.0.10 or greater
Cause
This is a specification from VMware Live Cyber Recovery 9.0.0.10.
The minimum retention time is twice as long as the snapshot schedule. For example, if you set a snapshot schedule of once a week, then your retention must be at least two weeks.
In 9.0.0.10 and later, the minimum retention period is twice the setting snapshot schedule. If create a new snapshot schedule or edit an existing snapshot schedule and the retention period is shorter than the twice, this error is displayed. Any schedules had configured before updating to 9.0.0.10 continues to work.
Resolution
In the case of setting the snapshot schedule to be taken daily, need to set the retention period to a value of 2 days or more.
