This applies to Spectrum CDM: Full Copy

By default backup jobs create the first copy as a full copy on thin volumes. Being a full copy, the 80% threshold set as a warning value is always exceeded, generating emails and alarm events. Is it possible to set by default the value to 0 (disabled) on the first copy, leaving the possibility to set a threshold value only on the incremental copies (it would be an important indication of possible compromise when the incremental copies should increase beyond a certain threshold) ?
