Looking for a certain backup model

Thread needs solution

Is there a backup model in Acronis that works like this:

First run it does a complete backup

From then on it just does incremental backups.  When an incremental gets X days old it is merged into the full backup.  So you always have X days history but don't have a growing number of incremental backups or have to continually do full backups to reset it.

All the machines are on WiFi and it can't take the load of say weekly full backups to reset the incremental chain to 0.

Thanks,

Sean

Hello Sean,

You can do this using the Simple schema of the incremental backup type using retention rules set for consolidation.
