Client has more full file backups than MAX_FILE_FULL allows

Server
1

I have a Debian Bullseye Server running Urbackup V2.5.19
Decided to do a REMOVE-UNKNOWN yesterday and in the process I noticed this:

Client with id=6 has 33 full file backups max_file_full=3

How is that possible ?
It will have to run for several days to remove all the backups over 3.

That indicates the Cleanup time window (8.1.11 in Administration manual) is not starting the cleanup process. The default is daily between 3 am and 4 am. If your server is turned off or sleeping during this time the UrBackup cleanup process will not run. If you changed this default, please check that the days and times you selected have been specified correctly.

[Edit to add]
If you are concerned the cleanup will take too long, you may temporarily change the Maximum backups to something closer to the current state, such as 30, and then reduce it gradually over time as automatic cleanup works to free up more space. You may need to restart the UrBackup Server process or the server computer to exit the cleanup you started manually.

Thanks for the info, I will investigate.

Just checked, cleanup windows is set → 1-7/1-2

I just manually removed them. Took close to two days.
Server runs 24/7 so there is no reason cleanup shouldn’t run.
I will lengthen the window from 1 hour to 2 hours (1-7/1-3) and see if it has any affect on cleanup being done.
