Automatically Delete Old Archives

Thread needs solution

Acronis is automatically making backups every night, non-stop. Perfect! However, my drives are getting full when I'm not around to delete the old archives.

Does anybody how to schedule a task that will automatically delete an archive after a certain number of days?

Hello Cary,

Let me assist you.

You can set an automatic consolidation of old backups in the Backup Options, so archives older than some certain time will be consolidated into one and old ones will be deleted. I recommend you to have a look at the Chapter 5.3.7 of the User's Guide for more details.

You can also use a little helper application chain2gen create by our MVP oracledba. For more information about the utility please check Grover's guides (Section 3A).

Please reply to this thread if you have any questions.

Thank you.
