Changing from Incremental to Reverse incremental

[HaroldC]

We've been running the Incremental backup for about 2 weeks now. We are thinking about switching to a reversed incremental. We just ran a full synthetic and currently do not have any .vib files. Is it better to switch between the two just after a full synthetic? Also will switching result in any new large vbk files or any large files at all? Or does anyone know of any potential issues with switching.

I believe that switching backup mode to reversed incremental will cause active full backup no matter at what point this was done. Particularly, to prevent any possible issues

Thank you! That is what I was worried about.
