INCR_BACKUP(8)

NAME

SYNOPSIS

DESCIPTION
This program reads the client-side configuration file and runs an incremental backup, i.e. all files and directories are saved, whose modification time is later than the moment the previous backup (full or incremental) has started. The options and their meanings are exactly the same as for full_backup, except for the -a option, see below. The total backup number is not increased.

-a  Differential mode. The timestamp storing the time of the last backup is not modified.

FILES

@clientlibdir@/@clientconf@
    Client configuration file
