In Spectrum Protect for VE, one can configure "VMDATASTORETHRESHOLD" in order to control if Snapshots/Backups will be processed in the Datastore level. e.g: VMDATASTORETHRESHOLD 90 means that the Hypervisor will not process any snapshot in a datastore with 90% of usage and above.
This is a good measure to control if Snapshots will be generated under that particular situation.
How can we control this same function using SPP plus ?
Why we're not able to control it anymore like in TDP VE?
P.S: An environment may be subject to suffer from an outage, since there is no way to prevent snapshots from being generated inside a datastore with 90% of usage.

In addition to the control by DATASTORETHRESHOLD, it is paramount to consider also several other parameters used in TDP-VE, since they help to optimize backup in a VMware environmment with security.
TDP-VE paramenters that would be important to analyze and decide wheter to implement in Spectrum Protect Plus.
