Hi,

you can see the exact command that gets executed using

cat /etc/cron.d/vzdump

Note that the --remove parameter is not specified. Consequently, it should get the default value 1/true.
Then you have to edit your storage QNAPBackupPROXMO... and set the Max Backups parameter.
Your old backups should be removed when you create a new backup and the maximum number of backups is reached.

Hello,

my storage backup get full again :



thanks for u response, but i m not understand

so i edit my backupStorage :



i can't see the option to set the max parameters :

maybe is this :
(Max number backup ) i put to 10


but he is the max storage by VM, or a max storage for all VM ?

EDIT : MAYBE response is this : found here : https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#_storage_types

maxfiles
Maximum number of backup files per VM. Use 0 for unlimited.

OR


i have to edit the command line and add the paramater --remove :




thanks

Exactly. This should be sufficient.

i have to edit the command line and add the paramater --remove :

This should not be necessary.
If the parameter --remove is not specified, then it is automatically enabled (default value).
