Hey folks! I'm currently in a bit of a bind. We need to restore a snapshot from 08/21, but our backup retention policy only kept the snapshot from 08/22. Is there any chance we could reach out to AWS support and ask them to make the 08/21 snapshot available? Has anyone had success with a similar situation?

So, you had a 1-day backup retention setup and now you're hoping AWS can pull a backup from a day before? Honestly, I'm not sure if they'd be able to do that, but it doesn't hurt to ask! You might be pleasantly surprised.
We actually set ours to retain for 7 days, so we haven't run into this issue. But definitely talk to support!
