Confused by incremental/differential options
#1
I'd like to schedule a full backup to be done once a week (say on Monday) and incremental backups all other days. I didn't have any problem setting up the full backup, but I'm having a problem with the incrementals. I defined a new backup job with Incremental being the default backup method. HOWEVER, when that job ran it generated a FULL backup! I suspect the problem is that this second backup job did not see the original, full backup. Do I need to change the Task name for the incremental backup job to be the same as that used for the full backup? (Perhaps there is some detailed documentation on how to set up a backup schedule similar to the one that I've outlined above?)

One other point: Is there an option to suspend the system after a backup has completed? That option is available in Macrium Reflect, and I find it very useful...

Thanks,
Wayne
