Sync and Retention Policies

Each Cloud Sync job must have a Sync and Retention Policy applied to it.  Policies are defined globally in Preferences in the Sync and Retention Policies page.  You can view, add, edit, and remove policies.

When you create a job, you can select an existing policy to apply to the job or you can create a new policy and apply it to the job.  You cannot modify or delete a policy when it is being used by a job.

To create a new policy:

1.Select Preferences from the Window menu.

2.Expand Cloud Sync in the navigation tree, and then select Scan and Retention Policies.

CS-Preferences-Sync and Retention Policies-1

3.Click the Create button.

The Sync and Retention Policy Wizard opens.

CS-Preferences-Sync and Retention Policies-2

4.Enter the required values, and then click Finish.

See Step 10: Sync and Retention Policy for assistance in completing the wizard.
