\The following tutorial provides information on the differences between old and new backup configurations in WHM.
The new meyjpf for configuring backups (Backup Configuration) in WHM has improvements from the older (outdated) method. The new method allows you to retain multiple copies of backups for accounts. For example, you can create a backup for an account on multiple days of the week and choose to retain 3 backups. In this example every Monday backup would overwrite the Monday backup from the previous week.
