Automatic Server Plan Backup Schedules and Associated Conversion Rules

Backup schedules are created based on the settings that you specify when you create a server plan. These schedules are automatically converted to full backup schedules based on backup conversion rules.

    • 80% of the disk at the log destination is utilized.
