Encryption
If I ran a full backup and the backup cycle's been running for a day or two is it possible to add encryption after it's been running without? Or do I have to start a new backup cycle and encrypt from the start?

Re: Encryption
During testing I just answered my own question. The following screen pops up after encrypting after a backup cycle has already been running, "If encryption is enabled the next backup will be active full. Process anyway?"
My understanding is this creates a new full backup, encrypted and incremental from this point on will be encrypted as well. Prior are not.
Thought I'd share rather than delete the post.

Re: Encryption
Hi RJ, your observations are totally correct. Encryption takes effect after the next active full.
