"Create synthetic full backups periodically"

Post by MAA »

Hello,

Currently "Create synthetic full backups periodically" setting can be set at least once a week.
And if "Restore points to keep on disk" setting is set to >7, it creates several files of full backups (and it takes a lot of space).
But we do not need several full backups!
How to make, that only one file of full backup was stored (regardless of the number of recovery points)?

Hello,

You can use the Forever Forward Incremental Backup Method, which will keep only one full backup followed by a number of increments (you can have more than 7 increments). Thanks!
