backing up just new files

Post by kengeroo »

Is there any way to get B&R to just backup files that have been modified in the past 6 months ?

please and thank you!

Hey Keng Sim and welcome to the community!

Can you provide a bit more background information about the scenario?
For example, you can utilize file level backup by Agent, but we have no exact filter\option to choose last modification date. Thanks!

yep performing an agent backup and need to filter on files with a modified date > date()-180
(backup only files modified within the last 6 months)

What about the files older than 180 days?
Why do you want to exclude them from the backup? I just want to understand what you're trying to achieve (Space savings or...). Thanks!
