The history of viewable backup jobs is limited to the 10,000 most recent

If viewing a history of backup jobs and trying to move to a page in the interface that would show the 10,000th or earlier backup job, the following error is seen:
error: 416: "The query will return too many results."

To view earlier backup jobs, use a filter that includes the earlier backup jobs but limits the number of entries to less than 10,000.
