Retention
The three limits per storage, and the archive that is never removed.
Every storage has three retention limits. Whichever is reached first removes the oldest archives:
| Key | Meaning |
|---|---|
keep-count | How many archives stay |
keep-size-mb | How much space they may take together |
keep-days | How old an archive may get |
0 means the limit is off, not "keep none". The newest archive is never removed, whatever the limits say, so a
server that was off for a month still has its last copy when it starts again.
Retention is applied after each run and on /uxmbackup prune, which reports per storage how many were removed and
kept. A storage that cannot be pruned is named with the reason.
The shipped local storage keeps 10 archives for at most 30 days.
