Hi all,
We just released Easy-backup v1.1.2-1, which fixes a problem with backup
retention if incremental backups are configured.
Simply put: If you configured (for example) 7 days of backup retention,
then Easy-Backup would do just that: It would do one full backup and six
days of increments.
On the 8th day it would start a new full backup set (keeping the old
one!) and do another six days of increments.
So it would essentially fill the storage until you eventually would run
out of space, as older backup sets never got deleted.
This has now been fixed and by simply installing the new v1.1.2-1
version of it, Easy-Backup will now automatically do proper
"house-cleaning" after each backup run.
To this end it also received a new command line switch:
/usr/sausalito/sbin/easy-backup --prune
That switch allows you to run those "house-cleaning"-tasks without doing
a full backup first.

With best regards
Michael Stauber
