Trueimage hangs in consolidation
Hi,
I'm running a backup. I've set it to automatically consolidate after two backups, and it starts doing so okay. The problem is that it does not finish the consolidation procedure. Instead it hangs with the consolidation apparently complete with the processor running at 33% use purely on Trueimage alone. Left after four hours it still hadn't finished on a 65 gigabyte file, despite reading 102% complete.
Clearly there is an error here. If the consolidation feature is unreliable I suggest you remove it from Trueimage. I've had this error consistently now with several files and its really irritating. At other times the consolidation procedure works as expected, so I've no idea what causes this issue.
Has anyone else had problems with consolidation? Is it really worth bothering with as a feature if its broken, or is it just me? How do I fix this bug?

For myself, I refuse to use any consolidation options which merge date. The example below show how to use automatic cleanup whereby the program deletes the oldest chain after the program reaches your preset goal of how many chains to keep which is
"store no more than X recent versions"backup chains".
The cleanup is immediate and no merging of data--just a straight deletion of the oldest chain.
Here is an example of several type backups using automatic cleanup. The use of any of these will require the starting of a new task. Signature link 2-A can be of assistance.
GH11. Create Custom Full Backup Scheme.Keep 4 versions (chains). The 4 is user choice.
GH12. Create Custom Incremental Backup Scheme. 6 Inc, Keep 4 chains. The 6-4 is user choice.
GH13. Create Custom Differential Backup Scheme. 2 Diff, Keep 2 chains. The 2-2 is user choice.
