Backup that is like a mirror

    Hi

    I backup a folder daily that is fairly large to s3. I currently have it set as a block level backup (due to size and s3 costs) that runs daily. Basically I just want cloudberry to update s3 with current version. When I run it CBB is still uploading the entire file. I have a feeling it is due to my retention settings. How do I configure CBB to run a plan that is a mirror i.e. I don't care in this case about retaining an extra copy. Retention settings screenshot attached. Thanks in advance.

    Check your Full Backup options on another wizard step and report back the options that are set.

    Thanks.

    Hi.
    To get rid of the unnecessary deletions please:
    1. Disable an option to delete version older than the given modification time
    2. Schedule full backup to run from time to time

    With that files will be re-uploaded only when there is a new full backup coming up.

    Full backup was already scheduled. Denis I changed the settings per your recs. Attached screenshot, would this give me what I'm looking for?

    Yes. In that case, all your files will have one copy, they will be backed up once and upon the change - only blocks will be backed up, not the whole files.
    They will be backed up once again only when the next full backup will commence.
    The previous version+all blocks will be deleted after that.
