25.07 upgrade on Netgate 4100 gets rolled back
-
This is a bug. It should be limited to 30 backups there. The bug was that it was only pruning the backups when the user visited the Diag > Backup&Restore page. If you visit that page it will try to prune them. It might take a while if you have 15K files! It;s fixed in 25.07.

@SteveITS Thank you. I'm going to try to run an upgrade again as I'm hoping that the problem described above (copied below) is the cause of my problem even though I only have 15,000 files in that directory.
"The box in question had 121,387 config-<timestamp>.xml files in /cf/conf/backup directory that accounted to around 1.5G in files. But it wasn't the disk space that were the problem but somehow the snapshot booted and wouldn't be able to access /cf/conf or cf/conf/backup because the process that tried to do something didn't succeed as the directory in question had too many files that broke some shell script magic."

Yeah it tries to parse all the files in that folder when it runs the config upgrade and has a really bad time! It should be fine after pruning them.

@stephenw10 Yep. The upgrade completed without a problem after clearing those files. Thanks all for the assistance!
