+Pruning and Removing Backups
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+You can manually delete a backup snapshot using the ``forget``
+command:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+  # proxmox-backup-client forget <snapshot>
+
+
+.. caution:: This command removes all the archives in this backup
+   snapshot so that they are inaccessible and unrecoverable.
+
+
+Such manual removal is sometimes necessary, but usually the prune
+command is used to systematically delete older backups.
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+  # proxmox-backup-client prune <group> --keep-daily 7 --keep-weekly 4 --keep-monthly 3
+
+
+.. note:: Neither the prune command nor the remove command free space
+   in the chunk-store. The chunk-store still contains the data blocks
