Can't create a new policy without Snapshot Retention

Hello.

I want to create a new policy that take volumes snapshots without a retention, but I receive the error message “At least one retention value should be non-zero.”

Why Kasten gives me this error? I only want to export the snapshots to nfs, not keep them in vSphere.

Kasten version: 5.0.10

Destination: NFS

Infrastructure Profiles: vCenter Server

Thanks @Pablo Albea for posting your question here.

You can actually set the retention under backup to zeros as shown in the picture below.

However, You will have to ensure that you are setting the export retention to custom schedule and add values to it.
