NetBackup™ Flex Scale Release Notes

Backup data present on the primary site before the time Storage Lifecycle Policies (SLP) was applied is not replicated to the secondary site

Once you configure an SLP with a backup policy, replication of backup data starts only from that point onwards, so any backup data residing on the primary site before the time that the SLP was applied is not replicated to the secondary site. (IA-27334)

Note:

A full client restore or recovery is possible from the secondary cluster only after a full backup schedule is run after the SLP is applied to a policy.

Workaround:

To restore any previous versions of the backup data (data which was present before the SLP was set) from the secondary site, you have to duplicate the backup images manually to the secondary site.
