This option lets you reduce the overall replication workload on the Backup & Disaster Recovery appliance.
It applies to the disaster recovery (DR) image backup jobs (full and synthetic full) on the physical clients, and to all backup jobs (full and synthetic full) on the virtual machine (VM) clients.
How it works
When enabled, appliance scans the replication queue (see Replication › Replicated Jobs tab), detects all successful non-replicated jobs of the client, and replicates only the job, which started last on the day, while skipping others.
The process starts each day at 11:59 PM (appliance time).
Right after you enable this option, appliance will perform this process for all previous days.
If the job is still running at the time the process starts, appliance will note that job and suspend the process for the given day until the job is completed (this does not affect the following days).
If you disable this option, this will make appliance to scan the entire replication queue, detect all jobs skipped when the option has been enabled, and mark them to be replicated again.

-
