Just running a local backup to disk and I want the retention to be

4 weekly backups for the current month and one monthly backup kept for a year.

I usually have this option, but on this job I only seem to have

Weeks and Days.

Which means to achieve what I want I'd have to keep 52 weeks.

Any ideas why this Monthly option isn't available on certain jobs?

Hello Neil,

 

Thanks for reaching out to our Forum. My name is Evgeny, I am from Acronis Service Provider Support.

As far as I understand you would like to preserve backups in a particular way and seem to miss the options to achieve it.

 

According to the detail that you only have "Weeks and Days" in the retention, I can assume you are using the Always-incremental scheme with weekly backups which comes as default.

In order to have a flexible retention policy I would like to suggest to switch the scheme in the backup plan's settings (you will need to edit it) to "Custom"  Capture.PNG

 

Please check the options (you can see more details about the schedule in the following article .

 

If you have other questions, please feel free to ask.

 

Best regards,
