That doesn't do what I want - of course it makes a full backup of the
affected filesystems but that's not what I want - I want to remove the
record of the failed backup so that if at some future stage I look for a
file which was in that backup, I won't be offered that backup as one of the
recover possibilities (because it won't work).
