maintaining the consistency of the backup.

 Clone backup settings - clones the current backup settings when you need to create several

similar backups. Clone the backup settings and then introduce the required changes.

If you change the backup destination by editing the backup settings, only new backup versions will be

saved to the new location. The earlier backup versions will remain in the old location.

the backup settings will have less items.
