Hi,

If you run the following level backup schedule on a given client:

week 1: full
week 2: 5
week 3: 4
week 4: 3
week 5: 2
week 6: 1
week 7: 1
week 8: 1
week 9: full

Then each level 1, just like all the other levels, should capture all
changes since the previous full on week 1, not the changes since the
previous level 1, correct? Also, assuming no files are deleted, and
there are only changes, or additions, each level 1 should grow in size,
correct? We had a client where the last level 1 was smaller than the
previous level 1, but in most cases, I've seen it either stay the same
or grow slightly. I just wanted to make sure it was working. I'm thiking
that some data must have been deleted jut prior to that last level 1.

Thanks.

George
