I activated a GoogleDrive profile on a development website, which I activated manually.
Now I have migrated everything to the definitive domain and I have activated the backup in cron at multiple times.

In GDrive there are now the manual backups of the old domain, the manual backups on the new domain and new, scheduled ones.
For the moment I prefer to keep all backups still.

I wonder, if I now activate a quota to save space, are only the latest backups considered or also the previous ones?


Also, how are the values for days and dimensions managed?
A backup is about 300MB and I would like to keep backups for 30 days up to a maximum of 5GB.

Many thanks in advance.

Buongiorno,

prima di tutto in paio di informazioni di base: la questione delle quote è applicata indipendentemente per ogni profilo. Quindi profili differenti possono avere politiche diverse. Inoltre non è possibile utilizzare più regole per le quote, ma solo una alla volta (ad es. solo per dimensione, solo per numero, solo per data ecc ecc).

Detto questo, ogni volta che un backup viene completato con successo Akeeba Backup controllerà i record salvati e applicherà le regole salvate, andando a cancellare i record relativi. Mi raccomando controlli che l'opzione Enable remote quota sia abilitata, altrimenti gli archivi su Google Drive non saranno toccati.
