I know that these means the incrementals will grow over the time, but on the other hand restores would be much faster.I like the idea, that way a corrupted increment would not result in a broken chain. Well, there wouldn't be a chain anyway, just 1:n (last_full : increments)...
A number of other backup programs offer this feature. It is generally called a *differential* backup. Regards -- Eliot Moss
