An administrator wants to ensure that DR snapshots are protected from inadvertent or malicious deletion without notification. What would be the best way to accomplish this?

Nutanix Approval Policies intercept specified entity operations (including snapshot or recovery point deletions) and require explicit approval from a designated administrator before the action is allowed to proceed. This creates a mandatory human review gate that protects DR snapshots from both inadvertent user error and deliberate malicious deletion without proper notification.

An Alert Policy generates notifications after an event occurs but does not block or gate the deletion action itself, providing no prevention capability.

Assigning a DR Admin Role controls who can perform DR actions but does not add an approval workflow that prevents authorized users from silently deleting snapshots.

A Playbook can trigger alerts or automated responses to events but cannot intercept and block a deletion operation before it completes.
