Incremental Backups...

[ScottBaxter]

Hi Guys,

We have our backups set to incremental every 5mins...

How many folder should we see for a full day or does it only keep a few??

Just wondering if we have the best backup schedule we can get??

Thanks,

Scott

3 at most, FMS will only delete the oldest when the newest is done so while it is doing the incremental you will have 3 backup folders

Impossible to say without looking at the business requirements and the overall disaster recovery process that you (and the client) wants to set up.
