I have some clients that take 3 days or better to do a full backup, i would like to do 1 full backup a month, and 1 incr backup every day, and keep 1 week worth of incr and only 1 full backup. What happens when there is still a full backup going on and i schedule and incr everyday? will it wait until the full is done or will it try to do an incr with a full backup still in progress? I would assume that the incr would fail if it doesnt have a full backup to work off of correct? Is there a certain way im suppose to schedule the backups to accomplish what i want to do? Also, im working with a machine with 2gigs or ram 800mhz cpu P3. The machines im backing up have pretty large sql db's 7 to 12 gigs, will this machine be able to handle that doing all the compression with rsync and over ssh? From some of the other posts ive read on this list, you can run into problems if the machine runs out of ram, even though it has a swap partition. Thanks for any input.
