Hello,

We are new to backuppc (migrating from an old DAT tape based system to disk based backup) and we have a question regarding full & incr backups.

Our goal is to maintain 2 months of data off samba shares.

We will be using the rsync option (better incremental possibilities). Is just using incrementals OK ? (which means the first save will be a "full"). Or do we need a "full" every month + incr every day just like on DAT (this amounts to about 1To). ?

Thanks for any help !

Sebastian Perkins
