How to keep only one version

Hi,

If I'd like to preserve only one backup of each virtual machine. How could it be done?

Should I set retention policy to one day? What happens if for some reason few days

pass and vdp is unable to make new backups. Does it ever remove only version?

Thanks!

Along to http://blogs.vmware.com/vsphere/2012/11/vdp-eval-videos.html#comment-50512 "The retention policy will expire restore points regardless of whether backup jobs are successful or not."

I have no idea how to keep just last one successfull backup and I'd be interested to know it too.
