Backup Settings

To specify settings for a backup chain created with the backup job:

  1. Click Advanced at one of the following steps of the wizard:
  • Local Storage — if you have selected to save backup files on a local storage of a Veeam Agent computer.
  • Shared Folder — if you have selected to save backup files in a network shared folder.
  • Storage — if you have selected to save backup files in a Veeam backup repository.
  1. If you want to periodically create synthetic full backups, on the Backup tab, select the Create synthetic full backups periodically check box and click Days to schedule synthetic full backups on the necessary week days.
  2. If you want to periodically create active full backups, select the Create active full backups periodically check box. Use the Monthly on or Weekly on selected days options to define scheduling settings.

Backup Settings Note:

Before scheduling periodic full backups, you must make sure that you have enough free space on the target location. For more information about periodic full backups, see Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide at: https://www.veeam.com/documentation-guides-datasheets.html.
