Daily for 10 days, 4 weekly, 4 monthly.
That covers me from broken updates, generally.

came to say something like this but not sure why you would do daily for 10 days. Your doing weeklys so why not 7. I would rather increase the monthly to 7 or do 6 bi monthly and keep a yearly.

They are all daily backups, those schedules I pointed out are for pruning. And I don’t understand the question… How would keeping 7 instead of 10 dailies help me?
because your last weekly would be a max of 7 days out

How am I going to restore day 8, day 9, or day 10 backups if I only keep 7 days?
