Not All Previous Full Backups are Deleted

Post by nscannell »

Hi Luis,

When using "Create new separated backups", drives are filling up with old separate full backups even though I have set "Full copies to keep" to 2 in Dynamics. So not all previous backups are deleted yet as per the log, more recent ones are deleted accordingly.

Any idea what is happening here?
Drives are rotated daily but sometimes staff are absent and drives drives do not get rotated.
It's almost as if Reflector does not take into account backups that aren't done on the same media.

Cheers
Nathan

If the drive is not present when it's time to delete, then it won't be accessible and won't be deleted.
