| Recovery Point / Incremental Disk Image / Incremental |
A point-in-time snapshot of your one or more disk volumes on a Host. Recovery points are incremental and only disk blocks changed since the last synchronization (backup) are stored. A recovery point works as if it is a complete disk image using the Disk Safe to maintain state among block dependencies across a large number of incremental backups. |
| Rotation Policy |
Each scheduled Backup Task can have an associated Rotation Policy. When defining a Backup Task, you can specify how many Incrementals to keep. The Rotation Policy Task will look at all other incremental backups created by the same scheduled task and delete the oldest Incrementals until only the last X Incrementals remain as defined in the Backup Task. |
| RSA key |
RSA is an algorithm for public-key cryptography. The letters RSA are the surname initials of the scientists who publicly described it in 1977. Authentication between the CDP Agent and Backup Server is controlled using RSA keys. The RSA key and backup key are used when encryption is enabled. |
