one full backup per week

Post by PeterSchwatz »

I have installed Veeam Agent for Windows on a physical Windows Server.
I want to get once a week a full backup (.vbk) without any incrementals (.vib).
The last full backup should be overwritten with the new one.
Within the configuration I can set the numbers of: "Keep backup for past x days when the Computer was running"
The lowest number is 1. Zero isn't allowed.
Is it still possible to create a full backup per week?

Hi Peter,

Minimum retention is one day (to be precise it’s current day plus one). You can enable Active Full backup to be created on the needed day or use standalone full backup option to create full backup one desired day. Last option supports command line, so it’s possible script the creation of new full and then delete the old one.
