Does running "Wbadmin delete backup -deleteoldest" delete BOTH backup and systemstate of combined backups?

I am running windows server 2012 as a Domain controller and wanting to trim the backups as the disk is getting full.

I would like to know if running "Wbadmin delete backup -deleteoldest" deletes BOTH backup and systemstate of combined backups?

I run a daily backup job of the main drive and system state and I seem to have the impression I needed to delete both the backup and systemstate elements separately?

The issue is that when I run the delete process for the system state it states that "ERROR - No system state backups were found."

I have read that you need to run the two seperate deleations if your running the backup and system state elements seperatly which I am not.

Can you clarify this for me?

Secondly, Do the backups automatically trim themselves when the drive gets full?

Many thanks

Don
