PBS and numbers of backups

[frankz]

Hi toi all , i have setting apron jobs and set this a 1 backup for day and5 backups for last days
But I verified this and I viewing in the list of jobs only 3 backups .
This repository is a repo of namespace.

You have defined two independent Namespaces "remotePVE" and none/"(Root)" --> https://pbs.proxmox.com/docs/storage.html#backup-namespaces

The selected Storage is at the top right of the window, not shown in your screenshot...

Sorry I hope the translation is in my favor. As you can see from the screenshots from pv5 evoremote is selected and the backups are 3 . In the PBS screen the namespace is dictated at 1 and 5.

Did a backup job actually run during the last three days? The newest backup is three days old; "keep" alone does not create new backups...

You may cross-check/verify your pruning expectation by using the simulator: https://pbs.proxmox.com/docs/prune-simulator/

There are at least three different locations for settings regarding the Backup Retention:

• PVE --> Storage --> evoremote --> second Tab "Backup Retention"
• PBS --> Datastore --> evoremote --> third Tab "Prune & GC Jobs"
• PVE --> Backup --> edit "your Backup Job" --> second Tab "Retention"

All of those may be active. Please check all three again for inconsistencies.

Yes, but I never activated those settings, only from pbs and they have always worked.

In my opinion if you look it takes the parameters from evo root 1 and 2 total backups 3 how do I find myself

Set the "Max. Depth" for the root namespace prune job to 0:

max-depth <N>
Configure the namespace depth it should prune from below the configured namespace. For example, 0 to only prune the backup groups available directly on the configured namespace itself. Omit the parameter to scan to the full depth below.
