Normally this would be appropriate, but in my case I must use full
backups as scarcely as possible due to bandwidth restraints. Normally
all clients get full backups every three months, and incremental
backups are performed in-between. The problem I'm having is that after
so many incrementals I have tons copies of the same file (with
changes).
What I hope to do is eliminate all copies older than a specified date
as long as there are still X number of copies left in the catalog.
Eventually I hope to use synthetic backups to prune these files from
the backup volumes (I use a disk based solution to backup windows
servers).
