Yes, I know. I make archive copies to a removable ssd. I need this copy, because we have otherwise no other offline backup. And a offline backup is nowadays a must in our opinion. But the ssd does not have space for more than 3 tar-copies of each host. Thats why it would be nice to have a feature, where the oldest ones would be deleted automatically, before the new one is made.

I have only space for 3 archives on my device. So where can I configure, that older archives must be deleted, before the next archive can be made? I tried a lot, but nothing works till now. My Configuration right now is: "FillCycle = 1", and "FullKeepCnt = 1,1", "FullKeepCntMin =1" and "FullAgeMax=30". > > Any help would be appreciated. 'Archives' are tar-image copies of a host intended to be on removable media if you want offsite copies so they don't share space like normal backups. If you aren't moving copies elsewhere you may not need the archive function at all, and if you do you would probably want one snapshot at a time when you swap media. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com
