It will also sometimes not remove any files at all, as you can see from the rest of the logs from May <-> 05. To reproduce you can use the same policy as in the environment, and just copy and paste the same file as in the format with a date that goes a month or more back, they will not be removed. ============================== This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.8.0#808000-sha1:e2c7e59)
