Why this matters
Backups need retention and storage planning rather than indefinite local accumulation.
Step by step
- List copies, ages and storage locations and identify which recovery points must be retained.
- Ask the owner to move or rotate copies through an approved process, keeping them out of publicly accessible folders.
- Verify retained copies remain accessible for recovery and the hosting account has the intended free capacity.
Keep the result of the final check and any unresolved question with your project records.
Availability depends on the product, permissions and management agreement. Use the existing support conversation for the same issue.
