User guide

The --application_aware parameter and the --raw (p. 92) parameter are mutually exclusive. If

you specify both, an error will occur.

3.6.2 backuptype

The type of the backup. If not specified, the value is full.

Commands: backup disk, backup file, backup vm

If the parameter is used with the backup disk (p. 19), backup file (p. 24), and backup vm (p. 28)

commands, its format is as follows:

--backuptype={full|incremental|differential}

Command: backup exchange_database

If the parameter is used with the backup exchange_database (p. 32) command, its format is as

follows:

--backuptype={full|transaction_log}

Command: backup exchange_mailbox

If the parameter is used with the backup exchange_mailbox (p. 33) command, its format is as

follows:

--backuptype={full|incremental}

3.6.3 cleanup

--cleanup

With this parameter, the software will clear space for the backup being created by deleting old

backups. If the parameter is not specified and the destination is out of space, the software prompts

you to manually free up disk space.

The parameter is not effective when you back up to an RDX drive or USB flash drive in the removable

media mode (p. 90).

Cleanup algorithm

The archive will be cleaned up only during backup and only if there is not enough space to complete

the operation. The software will act as follows:

 Delete the oldest full backup with all dependent incremental/differential backups

 If there is only one full backup left and a full backup is in progress, then delete the last full

backup with all dependent incremental/differential backups

 If there is only one full backup left, and an incremental or differential backup is in progress, an

error occurs saying there is a lack of available space
