VBR managed agent jobs - remove deleted items

[SteelContainer]

Hi there,

When managing agents via VBR there is an option in Windows Agent Job > Storage > Maintenance > Remove deleted items data after. It seems that the most this can be set to is 100 days where as normal VM jobs can be set up to 999.
Is there a reason for this or could it be increased in a future release?

It also looks like we can't edit some of our backup copy jobs that were set higher. The advanced dialogue wont open and displays the following message:
---------------------------
Veeam Backup and Replication
---------------------------
Value of '999' is not valid for 'Value'. 'Value' should be between 'Minimum' and 'Maximum'.

Parameter name: Value
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
I have opened a case for that but i thought i would mention it since it could be related to some sort of new limit put in place.
Case #03461873

Thanks.

Hello,
just to clarify the problem as I could not find more details in the case: in VBR 9.5U3 you configured a BCJ with "remove deleted items data after 999 days". Then you updated to U4 and with the new limit of 100 days you get the error message you mentioned?

Thanks,
Hannes

Hi!
That's correct. I can't open the advanced job settings at all. That message pops up.
I'm not sure if it's a 100 day limit or not as it seems i can create new copy jobs with over 100 days but i can't create windows agent jobs over 100 days. I'm not sure how the limits come in to play now.
But if there is a new limit of 100 days then i need to be able un-tick that option completely.
Do you know if there is a reason for this new limit?
Thanks.

Hello,
as far as I can see it is an issue where a hotfix already exists. Support will help you out.
