No. Retain Only Version  - Specifies the number of days to retain the last backup version of a file that has been deleted from the client file system. If you have 2 versions of file, in case deletion files from client this parameter  (RETONLY) doesn't work. But if you have only one version after delete file from client it is last backup version of file and it will be retain only 60 days.
Usually:
Retain Only Version => Retain Extra Versions
Version Data Exists => Version Data Deleted
In you situation Retain Only Version 60 days and Retain Extra Versions NOLIMIT - it is not good situation.

If it is not true tell me about it.

Hello everyone,

I want to create a management class that always keeps 2 versions of
the
file for it's backups. Is the following correct in order to meet this
goal? Thanks in advance for any help!

Version Data Exists = 2
Version Data Deleted = 2
Retain Extra Versions = NOLIMIT
Retain Only Version = 60 (This hasn't been defined yet by the
customer,
so if I left it at 60, would it keep each of the 2 files for 60 days
since
they were backed up?)
