- A site or OneDrive account that is under the strict SEC 17a-4(f) hold policy will fail any in-place restores so as to honor that immutability promise. For sites under that type of hold, you have to restore to a new URL or remove the hold. Any other type of preservation hold that doesn't have a strict admin lockout will allow an in-place restore. Restoring these types of sites as the preservation hold library will be reverted to the prior point in time. A new URL restore is recommended for that type of site as the cleanest option.

- The restore point frequency dictates the points in time from which you can recover a prior state of your data. Restore points start being generated when you enable the backup policy for a given OneDrive account, SharePoint Site, or Exchange Online mailbox. For Exchange Online, restore points are available for 10 minutes for the entire year. For OneDrive and SharePoint, the available restore points drop to weekly from 10 minutes for the first two weeks. Based on the defined and currently invariable backup frequency setting previously described, the following example highlights what is possible.
