Automatic deletion of old backup files

Post by phiaramos »

Hello, I would like to ask if Veeam has automatic deletion of synthetic or active full backup files.
Let's say I have 14 days forward incremental backup with synthetic full every Saturday. After 2 months I already have around 8 to 10 Saturday full backups.
Is there any schedule than I can set to automatically delete these full backups older than 1 month or 30 days to free up space? Or other process that is possible. Thank you.

The retention is configured in the storage section of your backup jobs; this includes both full and incremental backups.

What have you configured there?
