      I noticed that for "Mirror full backup", the process copies every backup, and then immediately removes backups older than retention. This seems unnecesary for full backups as there is no relationship between each backup for a VM.

        @Forza I can confirm the behavior, all points being copied, then pruned to target retention...

        for now it seems to not be a bug but a feature, to not have to think of what happens in the source job in smart mode (VM added/substracted to the source job)

        "we copy all and see afterward"

        but @bastien-nollet and @florent can confirm on that ?

        ps: I had this on mirror incremental backup, as I do not do full backups.
