So, I had FullKeepCntMin set really high, and I lowered it, and it's
been several days, and yet I still have a ton of old fulls lying
around.
My questions:
1. When and how do deletions of the excess occur?
2. Why aren't they occuring? (in particular, is it possible that I
need to completely restart the server for that to work? we *always*
have backups running, and there's still no "stop when all current
backups are complete" option, so I avoid that)
Here's the current config:
$Conf{FullPeriod} = '3.7';
$Conf{IncrPeriod} = '0.9';
$Conf{FullKeepCnt} = '25';
$Conf{FullKeepCntMin} = '5';
$Conf{FullAgeMax} = '60';
$Conf{IncrKeepCnt} = '45';
$Conf{IncrKeepCntMin} = '10';
$Conf{IncrAgeMax} = '60';
And here's the list of backups with types and dates:
# awk -F' ' '{ print $1, $2, strftime("%F", $3); }' backups
0 full 2011-02-16
