Feature request: Reverse incremental Backups

Post by Roof »

It would be good, if reverse-incremental backups would be available in Managed-Veeam Agent.

Reason for this:
Many customers ask us what is the best solution to get always full backups (VBK) of the backed up ressources on tape.

The best solution for that is to use Backup to Tape jobs. These create full backup on-the-fly, regardless of the source backup chain type.

and what if you want to backup the backupserver with it's OS itself as a physical windows-host, when you already have to backup virtual machines to disk and then to tape?

In such case you still can send the backups produced by Agent to Tape.

Thanks!
