Upgrade from TI 2013 to TI 2014

Thread needs solution

I currently have an incremental backup using TI 2013.
After upgrading to TI 2014 will the product find my parameters for this backup and can I continue these incremental backups or do i have to create a new Backup set (meaning start from scratch)?

Perhaps but my recommendation would be to stop the prior task and create a new task and point the new task to a new and empty sub-task so there is no intermixing of backup files within the same folder.

One option would be to configure your new backup task for automatic cleanup to avoid the full disk syndrome. You can find examples of "how to configure" by clicking the green link inside link 2 below and review illustrations 11-Full (only Full type backups); or 11-Inc (Full + X incremental's); or 11-Dif (Full + X differentials)--depending upon which type of the 3 types backup you are using.

As you know, if you intend your backups to be able to create a replacement disk (should your disk fail), you want your backup to be all inclusive of all partitions. The best way to insure that everything is included is to have your backup to be a "disk option" or "disk mode" backup as illustrated in the first few pictures of link 2 below.

One way to avoid a complete start from scratch with a new task would be to clone the old task and then change only the parts needing changes. Usually a task for a disk or partition backup is a quick creation from scratch, whereas, a file and folders backup can be cloned changing only the name and storage target.

Don't forget to create and test a new 2014 TI Recovery CD.
