You must place incremental backups in the same backup directory as the full backup on which they are based.

Note:

Not all backends support incremental backups. If a backend does not support incremental backups, the --incremental option has no effect, and a full backup occurs.

  • To run an incremental backup on all backends based on the most recent backup, run the following command. 
    $ bin/backup --backUpAll --incremental --backupDirectory /path/to/backup
