Question about a reversed Incremental

Post by KakarottoBkp »

Hello all!

I am new on Veeam Backup, and i have a question about reversed Incremental.

If a have a one job configuratared to use Reversed Incremental (the latest point on the machine, right?), i still need to create a periodically full backup in this job ?

Thanks all!

Hello,

No, there is no requirement to run periodic full: during incremental runs updated blocks are written directly into the full backup file, while replaced blocks are taken out and written into a rollback.

Please refer to this page on our help center and to our best practices guide to find recommendations on usage. You may want to take a look at this article to find animated descriptions of all backup methods and to compare different methods.

Thanks!
