We are using Backup Exec 9.1 and are backing up to disk. We wanted to be on a 2 week rotation but do not have enough space. What we thought of doing is this:

On Friday we do a FULL backup (saved in folder Friday 1).

Mon thru Thurs we do INCREMENTAL with reset archive bit (each saved in their own folders).

The next Friday we do another FULL (saved in folder Friday 2).

The Mon thru Thurs Incrementals will write over the previous weeks.

Does this make sense? Any issues with the reset archive bit?

Thanks!
