Limiting Rdrive
Posted: Fri Nov 20, 2009 11:16 am
I would like to roll out rdrive to multiple workstations that then run a script that backs up the local HDD to a network drive.
This I can do with ease, and it works really well when creating a new single file every time!
However, I would like to enable differential or incremental backups so that i could potentially restore back to a certain date. This I can also do and it works well.
My issue is how do I limit the amount of space each user takes up on the network drive? I have set the Imaging mode to use backup sets, set the quota to say 10Gb and the number of sets to 1, but it just carries on backing up past 10gb and keeps going. The initial image size is 6Gb, the differentail images are around the 512mb size.
Any idea, or am I not uding it correctly?
Regards
Richard.
