Re: Is there an option to copy and delete separated monolithic archives during the backup process ?

That's actually a good idea, I can compress directly on my NAS (though I guess files would have to be copied and not moved when the backup ends ?)

I wonder if backup can support a computer sleep during the process when I do that

Re: Is there an option to copy and delete separated monolithic archives during the backup process ?

Thanks for your answers! I guess I will try to disable compression for full backups and enable it for differential then Maybe that could be an option if that makes sense by the way ? compress only some kid of backups. I thought about using pre/post backup events to automate this change, but I did no...

Re: Is there an option to copy and delete separated monolithic archives during the backup process ?

Do you mean separating my full drive backup (of 1Tb of data) into multiple tasks ? That's something that is difficult to do IMO to separate a whole drive into small enough tasks. By the way, this led into all my disk space being used which resulted into the engine crashing silently (and not freeing ...

Is there an option to copy and delete separated monolithic archives during the backup process ?

Hi, I'm trying to switch to separated monolithic archive backups in order to reduce the number of folders/files used by my backups but I'm facing another issue. The program correctly creates separate archives with the given filesize but it doesn't try to copy (and then delete) these files before wor...

Re: Question regarding bandwith usage

I'm not using ftp or sftp but rather a mounted network folder (which, I realize now, means that the software might consider it like a "standard" file copy ?)

Question regarding bandwith usage

Hi, I recently switched from uncomrpessed files to compressed files (7zip format) in order to limit the number of files I backup on my NAS. It seems however that when uploading the 7zip files to my NAS, that cobian reflector uses all the available bandwith. Does that make sense and would there be an...
