This worked! Thanks.
I was using this command line to make a backup, and prune hold backups
sudo wyng-util-qubes --autoprune=on -w apdays=60:31:1:2 --dest=qubes-ssh://$qube:$dest -d backup -i
But using list --all it doesn’t seem to prune?

What am I doing wrong?
The autoprune section of the Wyng documentation mentions the following for the on mode:
on removes some sessions, as space is needed on the destination.
From what I understand, it only triggers when the destination is out of space.
Maybe full is what you are looking for?
Indeed, I certainly need to use full here, good catch. However, now I wonder if the “as space is needed” is something configurable. It’s actually nice to backup as much as possible, but I’d like to keep some room on the destination server, and not just room for next backup.

Update: There are new beta releases for both Wyng and wyng-util-qubes. Among other enhancements and fixes, this release fixes a serious bug in receive/restore that can occur when a snapshot is present and an older session is selected. Updating is highly recommended.
The recent changes also add Qubes 4.3 support, but shouldn’t have any impact on the information in this guide. However, you may want to have a look at the revised docs anyway; detailed Wyng usage info has been moved into doc/Wyng_User_Reference.md.
Also, thanks to everyone who’ve been contributing their testing and feedback to make Wyng a better backup system!

On R4.3 when running “sudo wyng monitor --all” i get this:
Local storage is offline: None
Wyng 0.8 beta release 20250824
Local storage is offline: None
Encrypted archive: 'qubes://<my_path>'
Last updated <date>
Error, Local path not found (None) None
Error on volumes: <my vms>
Anybody know why this might be happening?
Hello, thank you for this reply it resolved my error.
(Suddenly, everyone is interested in monitor 
)
@monoxide059 You have to specify --local for many Wyng commands. See Wyng: how to run wyng monitor…
