Prune GC

[yosefadpro]

Hi,

I am trying to perform a pruning operation to free up disk space, without success.

I set Keep Last 7, the process Prune & GC is over but I still have 15 generations of backups left.






What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.

You did not set Prune and Garbage Collect.

Prune marks the versions vor delete, garbage collect deletes them ( 24 hours after marked for delete)

You did not set Prune and Garbage Collect.

What do you mean?
I did the operation manually, without a schedule.

From your picture there is no Prune, Garbage Collet doesnt work without a Prune before.
Prune marks what can be deleted during the Garbage Collect.

From what I understand this button does both?

This is the menu item and not a button.

There u set the prune conditions, and you can do a manual "Garbage Collect".

For a manual "Prune" ( after you have set the conditions ) you have to go to "Content", select a "Backupgroup" and push the "Scissors" button.
