Hi

I am out of space, and need to remove old backups but I don not if it could affect the production VM. Could I remove the backup in the attachment withou affect VM production?

Because I do not have enough space, I select on Datacenter/Storage/Max Backups opcion 1 (one backkup for VM). But, I need to remove manually the old backups (yellow underline).

You can delete them. Vzdump backups are full backups and aren't connected to the Vm or other backups.

PS: Your local-lvm is really full. If its using LVM-thin you should replace the disk with a bigger one because nothing will prevent it from running full and then you could loose your VMs.
