|
|
Hello,
I am using Vice Versa Pro 2 Build 2015 to run my weekly backups to a network drive. I'm using archiving with the option to delete files older than 30 days, but it doesn't look like the older files are ever deleted. The backup uses replication mode and has archiving set with the following options:
Move files to archive folders (instead of copying)
Remove archive copies older than 30 days
Append Source/Target path to archive folder(s)
Any ideas why it's not working? I'm wondering if it's because of the Append Source/Target path option, but I don't see it mentioned in the help file.
Thanks! |

Wanted to follow up and let you know it seems to be working OK now, but I'm not sure exactly how the date calculation works. For example, on 3/28/2011 the backup ran but didn't delete files that were archived 2/25/2011 (which is 31 days before 3/2. They were eventually deleted on 4/4/2011. I'm deriving the date the files were archived based on the names of the archived files in the log.
Not a big deal as the files are eventually deleted though. |
