    What happens to previous 2 backups after third is generated

    Hi,

    I have setup the backup on .vm and I already have 2 backups their.

    I just want to query what happens when the third backup is generated?

    LRU? I am not sure, I would think they get deleted.

    The automated backup overrides the limit.
    I had two backups, but it still made another backup.

    If that's the case I will setup a script to clear then, the oldest will be deleted.
