What do you mean incremental?
- arthurcolle 5y agoI could be wrong, but its something along the lines of... You have 500gb of files at t0, that gets backed up as Backup1.backup, then you download a 15kb text file and kick off another backup. Instead of completely regenerating a backup of all the data, it will instead recreate a new Backup snapshot, but it will still use that original Backup1.backup file and then have some data structure in place that allows you to just incrementally backup the new data while still preserving the integrity of the old files and the integrity of the previous snapshot.
