Delete the unneeded backup

The maximum amount of stored backups is controlled by the backup.schedule.keep option (only successful backups are counted). Older backups are automatically deleted, so that amount of stored backups do not exceed this number. Setting keep=0 or removing this option from deploy/cr.yaml disables automatic deletion of backups.

Manual deleting of a previously saved backup requires not more than the backup name. This name can be taken from the list of available backups returned by the following command:

$ kubectl get pxc-backup

When the name is known, backup can be deleted as follows:

$ kubectl delete pxc-backup/<backup-name>
