Every full backup to tape, when incremental backups are copied

[pol]

Hi everyone,

I made one primary full backup and 6 increments every day in a week to NAS during the night. I want to make every day full backup copy from NAS to tape during a day, when primary backup is not proceeded. How can I achieve this bahviour? Is it possible without making every time full backup to the NAS?

3. At the Options step, set the full backup option to "Always: https://helpcenter.nakivo.com/User-Guide/Content/Backup/Backing-Up-to-Tape/Tape-Backup-Wizard-Options.htm
