Description

Issue: Database backups not getting deleted after retentionPeriod.

I have modified the CloudPanel cron to retain the DB backups for 3 days instead of 7 days. But this doesn't seems to work as it still retains the backup of 5 days old.

How to reproduce

I haven't setup any other backup option. It's just the local backup of the DB in /home//backups/databases/

The modified cron command is as follows:
15 3 * * * clp /usr/bin/bash -c "/usr/bin/clpctl db:backup --ignoreDatabases='db1,db2' --retentionPeriod=3" &> /dev/null

Possible Solution

I am afraid I don't have any.
