    Nevermind, I found it through the remote deploy options.
  • How do I set up a full backup on Cloudberry Backup?
    Is there an option in Rebranding to set the default? If so, I could just change that and push out an updated client. All our jobs are using the program default (3). If I could change that in the installer, I wouldn't have to login to 70 systems and change it manually...

    Amazon does not care about the folder structure, it only cares about the file type

    This is why I started using CB for this. With the Amazon App, it only allows one folder to be synced. I have pics in different folders and didn't want to have to restructure everything. If I would have synced the next folder up, it would have included other folders with other file types (that aren't unlimited).

    With CB, you can choose whatever folders you want. You can also filter out files that aren't pics if you have multiple file types in one folder.

    For me, this works great. I have about 100GB of pics in there from multiple machines.

    This is exactly why it's implemented in a different way in Backup for Linux.

    Ah, you were referring to changing the Linux version. Yes, that way does make a lot more sense. I had assumed that was the way it was supposed to work across the board before seeing your post here.

    Thank you for the clarification.

    What may be confusing - the behavior is slightly different in Backup for Windows (and most help articles are based on the Windows version).
    Backup for Linux counts only Full versions in retention by number of versions.
    Backup for Windows counts all versions in retention by number of versions (it only deletes the whole chain when it can delete the last version in the chain).

    We found this an unnecessary complication and implemented the idea in a simpler and more logical way

    These statements are confusing/conflicting. So according to the first part, Linux and Windows treat versioning differently. But your second statement says you changed it? I'm not sure what you mean by you implemented it in a simpler way. Is this the simpler way? Or it works like the Linux version now?

    So say I have a daily backup setup, 1 full and 6 block levels a week, what would I have to set this to in Windows to keep 3 fulls? 14 versions? Or 20 versions? Or would they accomplish the same thing if all backups ran according to schedule?

    The Linux way makes sense and I assumed that's what it meant in Windows as well but apparently not.
  • Amazon Drive for Photos
    For Amazon Photos you want to keep it simple. No compression, encryption or anything. Otherwise Photos won't see that they are photos and count as 'other file types.' I haven't used the Ransomware Protection but it appears it does lock you into Advanced mode which has encryption but the free version doesn't support encryption so I'm not sure what it's doing...
  • Amazon Drive for Photos
    I use Cloudberry for this at home on multiple machines. Each machine will have it's own CBB_Computername folder. Amazon does not care about the folder structure, it only cares about the file type. The 'Pictures' folder is only used by the Amazon app for syncing. With Cloudberry, you can choose which folders to backup. Just be careful to keep all your pics in one folder otherwise you will run out of space for other file types. I have some videos stuck in my pics and those eat up the 10GB of 'other files' that I get free pretty quick.
