How to delete SnapCenter backups based on date

[Beardmann]

For some reason we have a lot of old backups in snapdrive SQL databases...

We would like to delete all backups older than a specific date, but only from the primary location. (we have two snapvault targets)...

I suspect we need a PS script for this task, because doing this in the GUI is a pain 🙂

If someone has done this script already and is willing to share, it would be most useful...

Thanks!
