Veeam Backup & Replication detects that the number of allowed restore points is exceeded, and starts the transformation process:.The next Sunday, Veeam Backup & Replication adds a new incremental backup file to the backup chain.Monday through Saturday Veeam Backup & Replication adds six incremental backup files to the backup chain.During the first backup job session on Sunday, Veeam Backup & Replication creates the first restore point - a full backup file.In this case, Veeam Backup & Replication will create the backup chain in the following way: The backup job starts on Sunday and runs daily. Its data has already been injected into the full backup file, and the full backup file contains the same data as this incremental backup file.įor example, you want to keep 7 restore points in the backup chain. The first incremental backup file is removed from the backup chain as redundant.As a result, the backup chain may consume more disk space on the appliance. Instead, Veeam Backup & Replication appends data from the first incremental backup file in the chain to the full backup file. If the forever forward incremental backup chain resides on a deduplicating storage appliance, Veeam Backup & Replication does not reuse empty data blocks of the full backup file.
