Release: 2.0.2.18 (Canary) 2018-02-11

Once again, when I had --keep-versions=1 and now I change it to custom backup retention, the UI stores both options and I am doomed. Because UI still does not clean up the command line with the new settings.

It will not backup and complains:
“Setting multiple retention options (–keep-versions, --retention-policy) is not permitted”

I then can add the keep-versions via advanced options, save, remove it, save, no it will stay there. Now with Canary I have made all backups dysfunctional this way. Will probably have to export and re-import all backup definitions, or create from scratch.

EDIT/SOLUTION: I forgot, I found out about the solution some days ago.

  1. Set to “Keep all backups”
  2. Save
  3. Set to whatever retention setting
  4. Save
