Backup failure due to error in prior incremental.

[premeau]

My whole system backup was failing for because of an error in one of the previous incremental backups. I backup to a Linux agent CIFS share on my Veam Server (with the plan to make that location a VBR repository when that is supported by the Linux agent).

I was able to get a "successful" backup by moving the named backup file out of the repository, which generated warnings during the backup, but allowed the process to proceed. (I still need to test to confirm the backup image is restorable.)

Is there a command that can check the backup file integrity? Is this something that can/will be self recoverable in the future?

Currently it is not possible however it is noted and we'll see if we can add this in v1. Did the previous incremental job run succesful?
