Answer

The tamperproof snapshot is auto-deleted when the next scheduled snapshot is generated after the retention period ends.

Example:

The retention period of Tamperproof Snapshot 5min.2024-07-31_1515 ended after 15:21:00 but its auto-deleted occurred at 15:25:00 along with 5min.2024-07-31_1525's auto-creation.
