Backup ignoring max storage size
TIH 2011
I created a scheduled backup running daily:
create a full version after every 10 differential versions
no specified max disk space
I ran out of disk space on the backup drive after what appears to be 1 full and 11 differentials. It is using 1.2TB.
I changed the backup to:
10 versions with 600GB max storage.
Has not released any storage and persists in failing trying that 11th differential.
It appears that a storage limit setting either does not take precidence over the number of differential versions parameter - which seems wrong. Space is an absolute limit and versions can only be guesses because the files are compressed.
And/or changing the storage parameter is not recognized.
How may this be resolved?

It might also help if, when you create the new task, you also remove any exiting backups (save them to some other place) or else make the new task write to a diff directory.
