block level incremental backups

[oliverL]

Hey everyone,

I searched the helpcenter for more information regarding block level incremental forever backups but couldn't find anything.

Therefore I wanted to ask. If such a backup method is only available with storage snapshot integration?

Or does veeam refer with its forever incremental backup to a block level forever incremental?
Best regards!

Hello Oliver.

Thanks to changed block tracing techniques only modified blocks are included in incremental backup, so we can say that incremental backup is always performed at block level. To learn more take a look at this Help Center Article related to Veeam B&R Backup Modes and this article to learn more about Changed Block Tracking. Cheers!
