I have a secondary PBS on an offsite location. It has less disk space then currently used on the main PBS. However, I only want to keep the last 3 months on there. I think this should reduce the size of the overall backup to make it fit.
When a sync job executes, it looks at the last available backup for the current vm it's syncing and then start syncing the next in line even if this backup should not be there based on the prune settings. Therefor, it keeps just syncing one backup (the next one) every day (I garbage collect and prune once a day) of the same vm. It never gets to any other vm or other backup because the disk is full.
Is it not possible to have it sync only the backups based on the prune settings. Or do I need to do a hourly sync, prune, gc repeat? Garbage collect has to wait 24h 5m before it even removed data.
