Hello, I'm a little bit confused..... I make backups like this :
0 3 1-7 * * root /usr/local/bin/flexbackup -set all -full -w 7 0 3 * * 6 root /usr/local/bin/flexbackup -set all -differential 0 3 * * 1-5 root /usr/local/bin/flexbackup -set all -incremental of type tar Now.Lets say I have backups like this: home-services-var-mail.0.200604261553.tar.gz home-services-var-mail.0.200605070300.tar.gz home-services-var-mail.1.200604270300.tar.gz home-services-var-mail.1.200604290300.tar.gz home-services-var-mail.1.200605060300.tar.gz home-services-var-mail.1.200605080300.tar.gz home-services-var-mail.1.200605130300.tar.gz home-services-var-mail.2.200604280300.tar.gz home-services-var-mail.2.200605010300.tar.gz home-services-var-mail.2.200605090300.tar.gz home-services-var-mail.2.200605150300.tar.gz home-services-var-mail.3.200605020300.tar.gz home-services-var-mail.3.200605100300.tar.gz home-services-var-mail.3.200605160300.tar.gz home-services-var-mail.4.200605030300.tar.gz home-services-var-mail.4.200605110300.tar.gz home-services-var-mail.5.200605040300.tar.gz home-services-var-mail.5.200605120300.tar.gz home-services-var-mail.6.200605050300.tar.gz and so on. My question is - how to restore fully latest backup ? I mean if my system fails today and I want to have the freshest backup restored - how to do it with flexbackup? Should I extract fullbackup with *.0.* and then overwrite files with other days backups or how does it work? The other thing is how to to tell apart differential from incremental in such scenerio?
