Hello
You have two different protection data--------> Protection of data for IDB

Catalog protection determines how long the information about the backed up data is kept in the IDB. If there is no catalog protection, you can still restore your data, but you cannot browse for it in the Data Protector GUI.
None: provides no protection.
Until: means that the information in the IDB cannot be overwritten until the specified date. Protection for the information stops at noon on the chosen day.
Days: means that the information in the IDB cannot be overwritten for the specified number of days.
Weeks: means that the information in the IDB cannot be overwritten for the specified number of weeks.
Same as data protection: means that the information about backed up data in the IDB is protected as long as the data is protected
