New backup format in V7 Cloudberry Backup While you can use the new format without GFS, the retention flexibility of the legacy backup format is basically lost. You can have one full backup starting out and incrementals on top of that forever, but nothing is ever deleted. If you want to specify some limit retention time, you need to use GFS and have multiple full backups. Each full backup costs a another full amount of storage and (for me a desktop pro owner) eats into my 5TB limit. Further, if I wanted to take advantage of immutability, it only applies to the full backups, not to incremental backups, so one would want to have rather frequent backups, like weekly with a 2 or 3 week retention. That's a large storage multiplier and eats into my 5TB limit too. I'm backing up a few hundred GB on one computer. Maybe I have to buy ultimate? When I look at how crashplan worked (I used to have it before they went to enterprise only), I think there really should be a different way of doing this. What am I missing?
