Consolidation
My True Image 2013, Build 6514, runs every night, and successfully creates a backup.
I have never asked for an consolidation because I don't know what that feature is good for.
Nevertheless, the log always shows a consolidation step or two.
Why?
A recent copy of my log is shown below.
