Can you describe in a little bit more detail what you're trying to do? If it's just a matter of deleting an old backup set, you can do that from the storage tab in the agent. But I'm guessing what you're trying to do is maybe a little different. Thanks.

David - thank you for the response! There is no option to delete old backup sets under the storage tab. Maybe this relates to the fact that I am doing Hyper-V backups and this is some limitation? There is just no choice on the contextual menu when I right click on an older backup set.

I do not have a local Hyper-V install, so I am checking with the team. I'll reply back tomorrow with an answer.

David - you are wonderful, thank you!

My guess is you have the ability to delete backups in the agent disabled. That setting is disabled by default and should remain so after you change it in order to facilitate the delete. It's a safety measure to ensure someone accessing the agent cannot delete backups.

Go to the management console - Settings - Global Agent Options and check “Enable ability to delete files from the Storage tab”. After the change, you may have to close and restart the agent. Afterwards you should disable the option to protect the backups.

This did the trick! Thank you!
