n using less disk
space for backups. It would be a rather pointless backup system if
it threw away deleted files immediately. :) Anything that gets
backed up is going to be kept for as long as your chosen backup
schedule dictates, e.g. 6 months by default. If you have blown
your quota by accidentally allowing large amounts of data to be
backed up, you are still going to have to contact support to get
it deleted.

=B9 "Successful" as in, rsync connected to your host, did some stuff
and then exited with a non-error exit code. It does not
necessarily mean that what you think should be backed up is being
backed up. As with any backup solution you need to assure yourself
on a regular basis that it's doing what you expect.
=B2 Generally one or more of:
- Buy some more disk space for backups
- Backup fewer files
- Backup less often
