Incremental Backups
About Backups
R1Soft CDP Server 2.0 uses the Incremental Backup method when each original piece of backed up information is stored only once, and any successive backups only contain the information that changed since a previous backup. Read more in Backup Method - Incremental Backup(Technical Papers.)
A Backup within the System is a Task that can be scheduled and completed automatically depending on the defined Recurrence Type (Minutely, Daily, Hourly, Weekly, or Monthly) and other options. A Backup can also be completed once without scheduling (Now).
Before scheduling a Backup of your Host, you need to create a Disk Safe (Creating Disk Safes). By default, you are prompted to create a Disk Safe after adding a new Host (Adding Hosts).
After you start the Backup task, you can check its status on the "Global Task History" page. Read more in Creating Backups, Accessing the Global Task History.
If you have finished your backups, you can access them via Disk Safe Browser which lists all Disk Safes, Devices, and Incrementals.
