I had created a VM in 1/28/2022 VM101
and had a vzdump file on this VM under VM101> Backup

now I destroyed the VM101 and used this ID for another VM
and I just noticed when I clock on the new VM101 > Backup I still see the vzdump file ?

is this normal ?
or when I destroyed VM101 should this of Destroyed that vzdump file as well ?

Thanks for your replies.

Yes, this is normal. Removing a VM (or CT) does not delete all of its backups. The backup tab just shows any and all backups with the same ID.

Ok thank you for this answer. So I would just remove those to not confuse with new vm
Much appreciated

Kind Regards
