Backup 7 Containers for 7 days

[Thomasprz]

Hi everyone ,

I have made a storage for Backup with VZdump and i've tried to Backup one of my Container , but impossible from my Backup storage VZdump to save the VM in .zip to my computer ? i can only Restor , Remove or show the configuration of the container.
Then, for my company , i'd like to schedule 7 backups by Containers ( so each container , 1 backup per day for 7 day ) and then Remove all and restart backup but i can't find anything on google.
I have found only the possibility to schedule the day of week where i have to backup

Thanks you so much ,
Have a good day
Sorry for my english , i'm french

under your storage device you can set the number of backups how many backups would be saved on that device
you have set it to 7 then you have a hole week, if you make a new backup the oldest file will be deleted automaticly

Thanks you , but i didn't find anything about the number of backup under the storage ? Could you show me with a picture where is it ? Thanks

you can see it here https://ibb.co/iBmKd8
you have to go on to top tab (Datacenter) not on your node then storage
then choose your storage where your backups are saved and click on edit

Thanks perfect but it's not automatically to save , I have to click on each vm in "Backup" tab and then doing the backup ... it's not automatically for 7 seven each one :/
But thanks

go on the tab Backup in your datacenter there you can set it wich and when the backups will run
the backups will start automaticly it creates a cron job then
