This command delete backups. Usually, we delete 'INCOMPLETE' or 'OBSOLETE' backups. But in some case, we can delete other backups.
/uid=UID
/uid=UID1,UID2,...Delete one, or more backups, specified by the backup ID(UID). This option don't take care of the status of the backup. Attention:
You can delete 'AVAILABLE' backup.
There is NO confirmation at all.
/incomplete Delete all 'INCOMPLETE' state backups. /obsolete Delete all 'OBSOLETE' state backups. /failed Delete all 'FAILED' state backups. /noremove Delete backup definition in the DEPOSIT, but keep physical files. /before="date" You can reduce the range of the deletion, before a date. /after="date" You can reduce the range of the deletion, after a date /verbose Display more details.
Without one of the following options : '/incomplete','/obsolete','/failed', the delete backup operation will not delete anything.
