D davlaw Renowned Member Apr 4, 2012 197 3 83 Mar 6, 2013 #4 Thanks, but it appears to "stop" adding backups after that point is reached.. I have used that in the past... Or is this just something I running into when doing manually or going forward this will behave as "max" number and roll off the old ones. Just added a new one, but no remove option shown Code: root vzdump 140 141 --quiet 1 --mode snapshot --mailto xxxxxxxxxxxxxl@xxxx.com --compress lzo --storage BACKUP4HP Running manually, remove shows 0 even tho I have 20 as the max number. Maybe I'm miss understanding the results... Code: INFO: starting new backup job: vzdump 140 --remove 0 --mode snapshot --compress lzo --storage BACKUP4HP --node proliant04 Last edited: Mar 6, 2013
