Backup deletion troubleshoot

$

Hello

We have a Windows Server 2012 machine that runs a VSS full backup daily using Windows Server Backup to a dedicated partition.

It's been running fine for close to 2 years now and was automatically clearing old backups when space was needed.

We used to have about 250 backups available but for some reason even though there was space available it deleted all of them about 3 weeks ago.

I now have about 15 backups available and again even though there is enough free space it doesn't seem to retain all the backups it should.

I can't find anything useful in the logs and as far as I understand it there is no way for me to specify the backup retention period.

I would appreciate any help you can give me in troubleshooting this issue.

Thank you
