Incremental backup schedule

[virusek392]

Hi,
How to set up a schedule in the Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows application so that it performs a full backup only once and then continuously overwrites incremental backups with newer versions without modifying the full backup.
Kind regards
Lukasz

Hi Lukasz

That's not possible. The backup job will either remove the first full backup (in a forward incremental chain with regular full backups) or merge it with the oldest incremental (in a forever incremental chain without regular full backups).

If you want to keep your first full backup unchanged, you can create a standalone full backup and store it in another location. Please refer to our documentation for more details: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/agent ... tml?ver=60

Best,
Fabian
