Thank you for your answers

The copies already work correctly and the folders are generated with the dates of when they are made but I cannot automatically delete the previous versions.


I have tried it with the --rotate but as we can see it does not detect it

--rotate option was detected, retrieving backups to prune...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ROTATION: set to 5 backup cycles
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No backups to prune as per rotation number, 1 backups found

these are the saved versions of copies

20210303091752  20210303140104  20210304112020  20210308142448

Could it be that I am missing something?

Thanks a lot

Thank you very much for your answer.

I had already made several versions of backups, but had not seen it. I understand that the snapshot.vmsn are the versions, how can I now recover a previous copy?

I want to create a replica of the virtual machine with different versions. With the program before the DC, I could put the parameter --datedir = yes, it would create the copy folder with the data and I could save several versions limiting the copy space with --backup-room = 400.

How can I do it with the new program?
