Gotcha - but only until the max number of files is reached. If I set something to 12 (for monthly backups) and I just started, I won't really know.
It's not a big deal for now. It's just a shame that they don't show the information that is obviously in the database. --- Lelio Fulgenzi, B.A. Senior Analyst, Network Infrastructure Computing and Communications Services (CCS) University of Guelph 519-824-4120 Ext 56354 le...@uoguelph.ca www.uoguelph.ca/ccs Room 037, Animal Science and Nutrition Building Guelph, Ontario, N1G 2W1 -----Original Message----- From: Ryan Huff [mailto:ryanh...@outlook.com] Sent: Thursday, June 29, 2017 10:52 AM To: Lelio Fulgenzi Cc: cisco-voip@puck.nether.net Subject: Re: [cisco-voip] um, where'd the scheduled backups go in PLM There should be a unique XML file for each backup set (collection of .tar files).
