About backing up data using LIFECYCLE storage class
Initially, the backed up data resides in the storage class determined by the setting in the storage server properties dialog box (default is STANDARD). However, you can configure the duration after which the data transitions to other storage classes by changing the following storage server properties:
Note:
If you want to move data from GLACIER or STANDARD_IA to STANDARD storage class, or GLACIER to STANDARD_IA storage class, you will need to host a cloud media server and duplicate data through it.
After you change the storage server properties and as a new back up job is run per disk pool of the storage server, the new storage server properties get applied to the bucket associated with the disk pool and to the older non-transitioned images in this bucket.
