Unfortunately I don't. I have 250gb left on a different server. I
wonder if I can split the whole 750gb file into 4 parts and move it
somewhere else just in case the full new backup doesn't work.

Would anybody have a link to sample configuration for "practical"
example on volumes. I would like to setup one volume for fully, one
for differential, and one for daily. I read that is a recommended way.
 I've checked the "basic volume management" docs but it has a
different example, and I'm not sure how to setup volumes/pools to do
what I need.

Thanks,
Lucas
