How to disable next full backup

Post by dimaslan »

We have a job for a Hyper-V Vm which has an active full configured for Sunday at 12:15 am.
That site was down between Sat night and came back on Monday 11am. The next backup that started on Tuesday midnight started as a full.
The speed however is really low and there seems to be some operation on that VM that creates so many changes that the host it's on runs out of space due to the snapshot, long before the full finishes.
We have disabled the active full on the job and even went and removed the incomplete full backup file and "forgot" it in the Veeam backup set but still the next backup is starting as full.
Any ideas how to stop the next one from being a full ?

Hi Dimitris,

It should be an incremental session unless the full backup is scheduled to run. May I ask you to open a support case and share a case ID? I suppose there is some kind of database glitch that occurred due to the first failure and now Veeam considers an incremental chain as invalid and produces the full point.

Thanks!
