Working with backup jobs requires that you have several licenses: a SnapManager for Virtual Infrastructure (SMVI) license to enable you to use the VSC feature; a SnapRestore license to enable you to perform restore operations; and a SnapMirror and SnapVault license to enable you to use these features when you set up options for a backup job. SnapMirror and SnapVault also have some additional requirements.
SnapRestore has the following requirement when used with VSC:
SnapMirror and SnapVault have the following requirements when used with VSC:

"snapvault.job.hourly.label"="VSC_XXXX"
"snapvault.job.daily.label"="VSC_XXXX"
"snapvault.job.weekly.label"="VSC_XXXX"
"snapvault.job.monthly.label"="VSC_XXXX"
