Hi,
wouldn't it be possible to do this with the exponential backup expiry
like this:
$Conf{FullPeriod} = 6,97
$Conf{IncPeriod} = 0,97
$Conf{FullKeepCnt} = [4,0,12,0,0,0,10]
Would that give me:
daily incrementals for a week,
4 weeks of full backups (1 full each week),
12 months (4*12 weeks) of full backups ( 1 full of each month),
~10 years (10*64 of backups ( 1 full of each year)
Can anyone clarify this for me?
thx in advance,
Roman
