Incremental Backup Schedule

Incremental Backup Schedule 

During the incremental backup schedule, BDRSuite backs up only the changed block of the VMs since the recent full backup. You can schedule the incremental backup on any one of the following intervals. 

• Manually: The incremental backup will not run automatically, you have to go to Backup > List Backup Jobs page and run the incremental backups manually. 

• One Time: The backup will run only once at the selected time. No incremental backups will be processed after that.

• Every Few Hours/Min: You can specify a frequency and days to run the incremental backups. The minimum frequency to run the incremental backups in the Every Few Hours/Min option is 15 minutes. By default, all the days of the week are selected. If you don't want to run your backup on all days, select only the days in which you want to run the incremental backup.

• Daily: In the daily option, you can specify the days and number of times the incremental backups should run on a particular day. You can run the incremental backups to run up to 5 times a day and you have to specify the time timing for every incremental backup. 

• Weekly: In the weekly option, you have to specify the day, and when you want to run the incremental backups on the specified day. In the weekly incremental schedule, you can run only one incremental backup per day.  

• Monthly: In the monthly option, you have to specify the months, and a day in the month, and a time in the selected day to run the incremental backup.  

• After Backup: You have to specify the name of the already created backup job. So the backup job will run immediately after the selected backup job schedule is completed successfully.
