Deleting Expired Backup Sets with Dependencies

Hi all One of our storage devices has become full and certain high priority backups are not completing. Expired jobs do routinely clear, but when I attempt to manually do this it states that there are dependencies for other backups. Is there an approved way to merge the required files manually? Regards Rich

You have to delete the dependent backup sets first

Thanks for the reply, I think I got this the wrong way around. There are non-expired backup sets that depend on this expired backup.
