Hi,

 

sometimes when the full backup over the weekend has failed, I change the schedule on Monday to re-create the full backup.

 

The problem is, that I only have one volume in the full backup pool and a volume retention of six days. So every time I change the schedule, I need to keep in mind, to remove the full backups on Friday, before the “normal” full backup starts, because of the retention period.

 

Is there a way to mark a volume as over writable that I do not need to take care of that?

 

Thanks in advance!

 

Kind Regards,

            Andreas
