Azure File Storage Backup: Lock specific backup
Hi All,
How to prevent the specific backups from deletion or overwritten?
Like for example, we want to exclude an specific backup/restore point from the set retention period.
Do we have this kind of feature right now?
Thank you.
Regards,
- Alex

But you always have an option of soft delete where you can recover with in 14 days but the problem it is going to be expensive as Azure will also charge you the cost of storage for that soft delete storage you can also use snapshot management solution refer this article
