Keep in mind, that the Cleanup task is launched after each backup operation for the GFS scheme. This 
task deletes all the outdated backups. The next figure shows dark-gray rectangles instead of the 
backups deleted up to the current time. 
 
Physically the deleted backups are still on the tapes; however information about the backups is 
deleted from the storage node database. 
Below, the figure shows the deleted backups as actual, but demonstrates tape usage during the 
whole year for the GFS backup scheme in combination with the specified tape options. A number in 
the green rectangle marks an incremental backup created on Monday of the corresponding week of 
the year.
