5. Based on the policy specified, the Azure Backup scheduler triggers backups at the scheduled time. As part of that job, the file share snapshot is created using the File share API. Only the snapshot URL is stored in the metadata store.

6. You can restore the Azure file share contents (individual files or the full share) from snapshots available on the source file share. Once the operation is triggered, the snapshot URL is retrieved from the metadata store and the data is listed and transferred from the source snapshot to the target file share of your choice.

* Don't delete snapshots created by Azure Backup. Deleting snapshots can result in loss of recovery points and/or restore failures.

* Use [resource locks](https://docs.microsoft.com/cli/azure/resource/lock?view=azure-cli-latest)on the storage account to prevent accidental deletion of backups in your Recovery services vault.
120+
* Don't remove the lock taken on the storage account by Azure Backup. If you delete the lock, your storage account will be prone to accidental deletion and if it's deleted, you will lose your snapshots or backups.

### What is the maximum retention I can configure for backups?

Refer to the [support matrix](afs-support-matrix.md) for details on maximum retention. Azure Backup does a real-time calculation of the number of snapshots when you enter the retention values while configuring backup policy. As soon as the number of snapshots corresponding to your defined retention values exceeds 200, it will show a warning requesting that you adjust your retention values. This is so you don’t exceed the limit of maximum number of snapshots supported by Azure Files for any file share at any point in time.
