Automatic Backup File Purging

Thread needs solution

I am using True Image Echo Workstation. Using the Backup Server component, is there a way to configure it to only keep only a set number (four) backups? I am currently backing up my workstation to a network location once per week. I would like to configure that network location to automatically keep four weekly backups.

Thanks.

Hello Steven,

Thank you for your comment. I will definitely help you with this.

Acronis True Image Echo Backup Server was less flexible when it came to managing backups, but you can still do it by using quotas and time limits.

For example, you can approximately calculate the amount of space taken by 4 weeks worth of full weekly backups and then you can specify the amount of time they can be kept there, in your case - 4 weeks.

All the information regarding Acronis Backup Server is available on page 19 of the User Guide. Please use it for more detailed instructions.

Please let me know if you have additional questions.

Thank you.
