How do i distinguish between image types?

Post by mohankrajan » Wed Apr 16, 2025 12:06 am

There are a large number of images in my destination drive.
However, I am unable to differentiate between full, incremental and differential backup images in the chain of files.
Thanks in advance.

Are they from Rotation Schemes (Backup Sets) or just plain images?

These images are from Rotation Scheme GFS.
I just want to know whether a given image in the scheme is an incremental one or differential one. The image file name is not clear.
