I think here's my problem: let's say one or two host were not able to be
backed up (incremental) Then I miss one or more incremental backups, so
BackupPC doesn't delete the last Full after 7 days (when the new Full
backup occurs). How can avoid that scenario? Should I decrease the
FullIncrKeep to something lower? Any help appreciated.
