I have BE2014 on windows 2008 r2. The Job runs every saturday at 23.00: first saturday of the week is a full job, the second saturday is an incremental job, the third is a full job and the fourth is an incremental job.
I need to retain two full and two incremental backups. After this the first full backup must be deleted to have enough space to repeat the circle. BE can delete also the first incremental backup (that is orphane of first full backup).
Data retention is 1 week.
The question is how to delete automatically older full backup before new mounth backup starts.
Thank you.
