I need a solution
Hello,
We are currently running BackupExec 15 on server 2008 R2 and backing up to a 14TB NAS across the network. We started with the following backup scheme...
Annual - Full - Keep 12 months
Bi Annual - Full - Keep 12 months
Weekly - Full - Keep 12 weeks
Daily - Differential - Keep 12 weeks
We are backing up five servers with similar schemes. I found that despite the storage retention settings, older backups were not getting pruned. To test this we slashed the 12 week retentions down to four. Older backups still accumulated. Am I mistaken that shortening the retention policies should also remove older backups? I can provide more info if needed.
Mark
