IT35036: THE STATEMENT ABOUT COPYING SNAPSHOT DATA TO IBM SPECTRUM PROTECT SERVER OR CLOUD STORAGE SYSTEM IS AMBIGUOUS

APAR status

• Closed as documentation error.

Error description

• In the IBM Spectrum Protect Plus Installation and User's
  Guide, the statement "When snapshot data is copied to standard
  object storage, a full copy is created during the first copy
  operation. Subsequent copies are incremental and capture
  cumulative changes since the last copy operation." needs to be
  revised.
  
  Cloud copy only sends the latest backup instead of transferring
  all the backups. For example, if you run backups every day and
  then run copy on weekly schedule, the copy job will only
  transfer a single backup which is the last successful one.
  
  Versions affected: 10.1.3 and later versions
