[Feature Request] Create new full backup

Post by Psychor »

It would be nice to be able to issue a command to make a new full backup. Currently, "Backup Now" will build upon any prior backups. Hope that makes sense.

Thanks.

I believe you are looking for a Standalone Backup that exists in v1.5. How to create one is detailed here.

Only a Standalone Backup would work as additional full outside of your backup chain.

Here you find how to do it with e.g. taskplaner: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/endpoint/1 ... p_cmd.html

As Marco said, you can schedule a standalone full backup via windows task scheduler by using a simple script or by just launching the said command line command.

I think, an active full backup in to the backup chain, would be a nice feature. For example set, that every first backup on a saturday schould be an active full
