This is neccessary, because you could have more than one data-backup
and the corresponding log-backups need do be distinguished.

But then you could never use the previous data-backup for recovery.
And this would be very nice in the case that your last backup
has been damaged by a cup of coffee.

use the command backup_history_list in the dbmcli. For example,
you can specify -r LAST in order to get the last backups, which
are needed for a complete recovery of your database
