Grandfather-Father-Son in Acronis Backup 12 - HOW to setup that it WORKS?
I tried to create a Grandfather-Father-Son backup task in Acronis 12 but it doesn't seem to work correctly:
For source I'v chosen the whole volume (partitions mbr / c: / d: / e:), destination is a Synology NAS. I've chosen a customize backup scheme:
Full Backup: every first Saturday in month @ 02:00 a. m.
Diff-Backup: every Saturday @ 02:00 a. m.
Incremental-Backup: from Tue to Fri @ 02:00 a. m.
The retention policies I set:
Complete: 6 months
Differential: 5 weeks
Incremental: 5 days
The backup scheme is working. BUT: Every Saturday Acronis is doing a FULL backup (instead of DIFFERENTIAL) and needs 5-7 HOURS(!!!) for deleting backups by defined retention policies. CONSOLIDATING backups is NOT enabled.
What's wrong with this backup plan? In 11.7 it worked fine. I can't realize the GFS backup scheme with Acronis 12!
