Backup RDX drive

[bp-Solutions]

Dear veeam community,

i've already read all the posts regarding backup to rdx media.

Is it true that i need a seperate backup job for each media if i want to use the reversed incremental mode?

I'm using veeam backup & replication v. 7.0.0.833

My goal ist to backup certain VMs once a week; in order to save disk space i only want one full backup.
The next backups should be incremental ones (reversed)
The rdx drives (1TB) are rotaded every week. I have five drives in total.
I need a complete backup chain for each drive.

Thank you very much for you suggestions!

Hello Sebastian,

Is it true that i need a seperate backup job for each media if i want to use the reversed incremental mode?

In your configuration, yes, you need to make separate jobs. Please keep in mind that in this scenario you will have a full backup on each RDX drive plus subsequent incremental files.

Thank you.
