Restore Point Retention
Just curious.. when does VEEAM purge old restore points? I changed a job from 10 to 3, ran backups, yet old backups were not deleted.

Re: Restore Point Retention
Retention policy is applied at the end of the successful job run. What backup mode do you use, I wonder?

Re: Restore Point Retention
I was impatient.. the job did delete the old backups finally. Didn't seem immediate though.
I have been standardizing on Reverse Incremental with 7 restore points. That seems the safest so the current backup is always a full.. and Active fulls no longer needed IIRC
