      Hi!

      I am having some issues with Interrupted backups due to the wifi being unstable.... not a XO issue. But that gives me leftover faulty backups on the destination. And I can't find a way to manage them? Every new backup gets a GUID name and the old interrupted backups are just left on the destination and I have to go there, figure out which ones are bad, and remove them manually? I can't even see which backup is which as I can't find the GUID in XO....

      Ideally I'd like to have the broken ones removed automatically and the completed backups clearly labeled with name and date, preferably managed from with XO but if they're labeled like that at least it's easy to manage manually on the destination.

      And the option to keep just the latest full backup would be great. I make a new full backup, the old full backup and delta backups are removed...

      I get that these are not issues when you have vast amount of storage space for backups, but I'm unfortunately not at that point in my homelab setup yet...

        Sorry for the huge delay, I just stumbled on this thread 😅

        It's indeed the case now, XO automatically check the integrity and clean any unused files in VM directory on a remote when that VM is backed up.

          I think we are about to release a way to clean them automatically soon 🙂 @julien-f or @badrAZ will confirm that.
