Hi,
Whats the best practise evacuate an extent with immutalbe backups?
I need to evacuate an extent from an object lock repo with 7 days immutalbe backups.
I put the extent in maintenance and started the evacuation. What happens with die immutalbe backups? They will stay on the locked repo?

Ahh I got confused when I saw the magic word “object”, yep if the performance tier extent’s backups haven’t had their immutability flag expire or manually removed,they aren’t going anywhere!
+23If the immutability period hasn’t expired, nothing can happen with them.
You can also only have one capacity tier extent in a SOBR as of v11 (changing in v12), so you can’t evacuate from capacity tier at all, only from performance tier.

It is a performance tier. its a local linux repo. so if i evacuate 7 days of immutalbe will stay on the extent i guess.

+12When I remember right, backup files get copied, but not moved - because of immutability.
+21Do you not require also another extent with the immutable attribute as well to evacuate? If the other extents were not I don't see how you can move them unless they copy as Wolfgang noted.
