Stubs
Placeholders of the original data after it has been migrated to the secondary storage. Stubs replace the archived files in the location selected by the user during the archive. Because stubs are proprietary and static, if the stub file is corrupted or deleted, the moved data gets orphaned. Komprise does not use stubs, which eliminates this risk of disruption to users, applications, or data protection workflows.
