Deleting Backup from Disk

If you want to delete records about backups from the Veeam Backup & Replication console and configuration database and, additionally, delete backup files from the backup repository, you can use the Delete from disk operation.

You can remove an entire backup related to a Veeam Agent backup job or remove specific child backups — backups related to individual computers in the backup.

To remove a Veeam Agent backup from the backup repository:

1. Open the Home view.
2. In the inventory pane, click Backups.
3. In the working area select and remove the necessary backup:

• To remove the entire backup related to the Veeam Agent backup job or policy, select the backup and click Delete from > Disk on the ribbon or right-click the backup and select Delete from disk.
• To remove a backup of a specific computer in the Veeam Agent backup job or policy, expand the parent backup, select the necessary computer and click Delete from > Disk on the ribbon or right-click the computer and select Delete from disk.
