Question regarding Incremental Backup
I have a situation here
. I was running a diffrential backup for one of my file servers since last 2 years. Now management decided to run Incremental backups. The total folder size is around 20 TB.Here are my questions
1. If I change my backup type to Incremental then the first backup will be a full backup?
2. What if I cancel the job suppose after backing up 8 TB of data. The next incremental will again be a full backup or it will backup the data after the point job was cancelled?.
I am not sure so wanted someone to help me out with this
I changed the Backup mode to Incremental and first backup ran as a Full backup.
