Purge Policy The NSA maintains the files that have been included in your backups. However to save hard
disk space, you can choose to delete files that have been included in previous backups.
• Select Keep All Old Backup files to store all files that have been included in previous
backups.
• If you want to store a certain number of backup files, select Keep Only the last n
backup files (1-30). Enter a value (n) from 1 to 30 to specify how many backups the
NSA stores. All backup files older than the last one are deleted. You will not be able to
recover files that existed (only) in those previous backups. Select this if backup space is
limited and recovery of old files is not important.
• If you want to store all backups for a certain time period, select Keep Backups for n
day(s)(1-3650). Enter a value (n) from 1 to 3650 to specify how many days the NSA
stores all backup files. After this day has expired, all backup files will be deleted.
