evaluate-and-start-backup¶
Enforces backup retention policies by removing old backups
This task examines the current machine to determine if it should be backed up based on its configured schedule parameters:
- backup/enable-auto-backup: Controls whether automatic backups are enabled
- backup/initial-backup-hour: The hour of day when the first backup should occur (0-23)
- backup/daily-backup-frequency: Number of backups to perform per day at even intervals
If a backup is due, the task creates a work order using the backup-drp-endpoint blueprint.
This task is designed to be called by the backup-hourly-check trigger.
