Hi,
I'm wondering if it's possible to implement the following tape backup scheme in Bareos:
Start with a full backup and do incremental until tape is full.
When new tape is inserted, do a full backup again and do incremental until tape is full.
And so on.
Basically this would allow using a single tape to be able to restore to any point in time. Older tapes can be archived without having to do anything.
There's only a single full backup on the tape to avoid wasting space.
Regards,
