Prevent vault from completely filling up

Thread needs solution

Some of my vaults are on shared storage, and I have had a couple cases where the vault totally filled up and some services became unavailable until I was able to free up some space. Is there a setting I can set on vaults to overwrite old backups or purge them if a vault is almost at capacity so that Acronis cannot totally fill it up? Thanks!

Hello AB,

You can set retention rules that limit the amount of arhives by date, number or size: http://www.acronis.com/en-us/support/documentation/AcronisBackup_11.7/#…

Here is a usage example: http://www.acronis.com/en-us/support/documentation/AcronisBackup_11.7/#…
