Local backup possible issues if Block Level, Retention policy, and Full Backup Schedule? HI Matt,
Please note that the settings for the rotating drives and regular backup plan are the same except for the Retention policy is set to 5 file versions and not the default 3 on the Regular Backup. I imagine that whether it is called RotatingDrive or any other name for that matter, if the settings are similar then the backup will perform the same?
Please confirm:
In addition, if I have full backed up data on (4) external hard drives with the same backup plans and drive letters that I rotate every week starting with week 1 at the beginning of the month. should I disable the block level type backup in general in the
A: Select backup method,
Or
B: do you mean to disable this in the Full Backup option and Keep the Advanced Mode Block Level Backup in Select Backup Method?
Please confirm: Disable in A Or B?
Goal is to simply backup weekly modified files and do a full backup every 6 weeks.
The full backup takes 5 days, so I do not want to do every week.
Thanks,
Sandra
I am thinking maybe I should have selected simple mode and I don't know with 2.5 tb is this is a good way to go if I want to keep up to date weekly changes?
