Then do a full 'occasionally' and incrementals more often in between. That's pretty typical backup strategy. How many incrementals dictates how painful a restore would be.
Some example data: - my 15+ years of data is 68 MB gzipped if I dump just the archive table and gzip it - a 'day' of incremental additions to the archive table is 25 KB gzipped - so a month of those is under 1 MB more So you could easily do a weekly full (4 * 68) and incrementals the other days (0.025 * 26) and be far under 300 MB total backup size. While you 'could' do so in weewx, I would still strongly suggest an external utility 'and' cron. That way you could leave weewx completely alone and tune how often you do full and incrementals to your liking. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-development" group.
