Description
Passing a backup_files argument to ConfD job db_backup_change_expiration with incorrect formatting is silently ignored.
The job accepts exa_test/id_1/level_0 but it doesn’t accept exa_test/id_1/level_0/node_0/backup_202411111127. The input has to be a prefix of the backup.
Workaround
There’s no workaround other than using a correctly formatted argument.
Fix
An error is reported when the format is not correct.
