The other day our incremental backup of about 20 machines (concurrent backups) took about 2 hours to complete where it usually takes about 20 minutes. That day the file retention periods for a past full backup expired and the incremental backups triggered automatic pruning. I suspect the autopruning of finished jobs slowed down the database operations for other jobs still running so the whole thing took a LOT longer than usual. It would be more convenient if the autopruning could instead be done from a cron job at times when no backups are scheduled to run.
I set AutoPrune = no for the pools in question but couldn't figure out a script to initiate pruning of retention-expired file records. Does anyone know of a way to do this?
