How to delete a specific Restore Point


Does Veeam allows to delete a specific Restore Point via GUI? I want to delete an oldest full backup. Can I directly delete it from the physical location? I reckon this is not going to corrupt my backup chain as I already have another full backup.

You can delete manually it from the physical location, but then you must rescan the repository and then “Forget” the missing restore points: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/vsphere/backup_copy_remove_missing_point.html?ver=120


Also, beware that if you remove a Full Backup, all the incrementals after this Full will be lost because it’s not possible to restore data from incremental backups without the Full.

That answers my question.
