Dear All,
I have 2 backups jobs as below:
job1 Tue-Sat at 12:30am Sat do the full backup & other is increment & set retention policy is 4
job2 Mon-Sat at 12:30pm Sat do the full backup & other is increment & set retention policy is 5.
It is because we do not have enough disk space so I only want to keep each backup contain 1 full backup only. That mean when the latest full backup completed, it delete the previous full backup.
BUT I find it does not do it automatically?
Can anyone tell me how set the retention or other setting to fulfill my requirement?
Thanks!

Re: retention policy & keep full backup copy
Most likely you have either active or synthetic fulls enabled. If you want to maintain a single full in the chain, take a look at the forever forward incremental backup method.
