What can I delete after IFW consolidate?

Post by rxgeek »

I don't fully understand IFW Consolidate. I did not check the Delete combined files option. After combining, what files can be deleted? The original Full backup? all the incrementals?

everything involved in consolidate. you basically have a new full backup (all items combined to one).

A daily Partial backup linked to the original full so I can't delete the original full without deleting the partial, which is not a big deal. I assume I need to make a new schedule for partials linked to the consolidated b/u. Correct?

Follow-up--When I check "Delete Dombined Files" after Consolidate they do not get deleted. Bug, feature ir ID10T error?
