Circular backup
Posted: Thu Jan 26, 2012 9:05 am
Hi,
I've been playing with the trial version of R-Drive Image.
I've created an event to make a daily differencial backup of a drive.
I've set the backup settings to use backup sets and keep 2 sets & 2 image files. I've also set the max age to 7 days.
after running for a few days I see that r-drive doesn't delete the of backup files.
my goal is to be able to set the amount of backups the backup drive can afford without getting filled. but if the recycling of files doesn't work it will eventually fill the drive and fail..
I'd be happy to get any tip incase I'm doing it wrong...
thanks
