[MERGED] feature request - extended veeamzip retention

Post by mliebe »

I'd like to request the "Delete this backup automatically" options in VeeamZip either have custom options or at least longer periods than 1 month. 3 month, 6 month, 1 year etc.

Here's my reasoning
I'm trying to find a way to respond to one-off backup requests with custom retention periods. Customer asks for a days backup to be retained for 4 months when my normal backup schedule only holds 15 daily restore points. I need this backup to be completely independent of the backup chain. The only way I've been able to figure out how to accomplish this is through VeeamZip. The only problem with this option is that Veeam zip has an option to "Delete this backup automatically" The longest option is 1 month or never. So to keep this backup for 4 months I have to set the auto delete to never and then manually clean up the backup 4 months from now.
