Abstract
A computer-implemented method, according to one embodiment, includes determining and using a first backup plan, where the first backup plan details a first number of backup copies of source volumes that are to be created and a first time interval that the first number of backup copies are to be created. In response to a determination that a first set of conditions are met during use of the first backup plan in a data storage system, a second backup plan that details a second number of backup copies of the source volumes that are to be created and a second time interval that the second number of backup copies are to be created are determined and used. In response to a determination that a second set of conditions are met during use of the second backup plan, a reversion to use of the first backup plan is caused.
