Specifying Monthly Schedule

To create a monthly schedule for the backup policy, at the Schedule step of the wizard, specify the following:

1. Turn on the Monthly Retention toggle.
2. In the Snapshot field, select months when the backup policy will create snapshots for Azure file shares.
3. In the Snapshot Settings section, specify the following:

1. From the Start time drop-down list, select time when the backup policy will create snapshots for Azure file shares.
2. In the Run on section, specify a day of the week when the backup policy will create snapshots for Azure file shares.
3. In the Snapshots to keep field, specify the number of snapshots that you want to keep. When this limit is exceeded, Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft Azure will remove the earliest snapshot from the chain.
