Hi there,
I'd like to only keep 3 or 4 days worth of mysql dumps using automysqlbackup but I can't see any option to achieve this in /etc/default/automysql?
We have an offsite backup server and some of the databases we backup are so huge that there just isn't enough space to keep a week's worth at any one time.
Can you help with the following?
Our server only requires DAILY backups.
Keep 3 days of DAILY backups then rotate, so automatically remove backups older than 3 days
if possible, don't create WEEKLY and MONTHLY backup dirs in /backups directory as we only need DAILY backups?
Hope you can help!
Many Thanks :)

Edit your automysqlbackup.conf
(/etc/automysqlbackup/automysqlbackup.conf)
Uncomment rotation setting defaults and set them as you prefer.
For example:
