[BackupPC-users] When do files get re-transferred?
2011-12-23 06:25:52
Hi,
I have a query about file transfer while taking backups. I understand
that backuppc uses de-duplication i.e. only a single copy of the file is
stored even if multiple copies of it exist on different machines.
However, what I would like to know is when a file is transferred after
being backed up once. Is it during the next full-backup? Is it after a
certain duration has elapsed? Or is it that once a file is copied it is
never transferred again (even for full-backup) unless it is changed?
On a side note, backuppc has so far proved to be the best disk based
backup solution I have come across. I was so impressed with it that I
even configured it on dd-wrt based router

Keep up the great work.
Looking forward to a response.
Regards,
Rahul.
