Too quiet?
Is there a way to easily tell / see the backup chain of full vs differential backups for a particular configuration / drive? Graphic visualization would be wonderful.
Background:
I upgraded from ATI 2014 to ATI 2015 some time ago. I never quite had my configuration right under 2014, mostly due to slightly too small of backup drives. After I upgraded to 2015, I switched to larger (3TB) USB 3.0 drives and tweaked my configuration. It runs GREAT now! I don't want to change a thing. I can easily switch from "Blue" to "Red" backup configurations/drives (I saw that in a Grover post, which is something I actually used to use since I had a Blue drive and a Red drive).
My backups are running so great and so quiet that I worry that they are even working. I do know that they are, because if I open ATI, I see that the last backup was run and the next is scheduled.
Under ATI 2014, it was relatively easy to see the backup history in terms of what was a full and what was a differential. I can click on RECOVER FILES and see the pulldown with the list of backups (e.g., Backup version). I can't tell if a backup is a full or a differential though. I like to switch configurations/drives just before a Full backup is performed, so that the first backup after each switch is always a full. I know I don't need to do it this way, but it is my thing.
