[SOLVED] AMS Unmanaged vault: Retention periods not applied
Hello,
Acronis version 11.5.32308. All retention plans created together with the backup tasks. A daily, weekly, monthly and yearly backups exist for every machine.
in the current setup we have a lot of machines which save weekly full backups to a Unmanaged vault (NAS).
We noticed that some Full backups are stored longer than their retention period (60 days).
Running the Replication/Cleanup (1st location) tasks does not yield any result, no files are deleted. As this is an unmanaged vault, I see no way of accessing the share via Acronis console so to be able to delete the old backups through the Acronis interface (and not risking of deleting any necessary data).
These are Full backups so there shouldn't be any dependencies, correct?
How can I cleanup the expired backups?
Thx
Luka

Hello Ekaterina,
The due backups were eventually deleted. Guess it just needed some more time,
Thanks for the quick reply, bye
