Description
When the HOME directory of the user that is used to access the sftp server differs from the directory which is used as the location for the archive, then the cleanvolume option on the remote volume will not work correctly and expired backups will not be cleaned up.
Workaround
Either
- Configure the sftp volume so the user's HOME directory and the remote volume location match
- Check which backups are expired and remove them manually by removing the directories with the given backup ID
Fix
The backups will be deleted when the cleanvolume option is set, as expected.
