How does vbr.py work?
How does the vbr.py utility make backups under the hood?
Is the data actually copied over or is it more of a rearrangement of pointers to the old data?

Hi
When you backup Vertica using vbr, the data files are actually copied over to the backup host. Unless you are careating a hard link local backup.
For a detailed explanation, please review
