Feature Request: Reverse Incremental with all .vrb Deltas to Tape

[Poweruser]

Currently, we can store all .vib deltas to tape, if we enable this option.
But it is not possible to also store all .vrb deltas to tape the same way.
This should be added and can be coded in a minute i guess.

Please add this feature, so we always have a big backup on the latest tape, which includes the current full backup and all deltas (from disk), so we can restore some accidently deleted files from past.

Hi Poweruser,

Thank you for your request, however, we are planning to remove Reverse Incremental a future release, so I'm not sure we can consider this request at this time: vmware-vsphere-f24/question-about-chang ... ml#p514466

A File to Tape job will be able to grab the Reverse Incremental chain in full now, but given the planned removal, I would look into working with Forever Forward Incremental chains moving forward.
