Max File Size

Backup > Max File Size

The Max File Size page specifies the maximum file size for image files. When a backup runs, image files get created. The file size specified in this option is the maximum size of each image file. For example, a volume containing 10 GB of data is set to run. The image that gets created for a full backup may be 5 GB. If the max file size is set to 600 MB, the system will create 9 files, 8 that are 600 MB and 1 file with the balance of the data.

  • NTFS - Unrestricted file sizes are only supported on NTFS formatted disks.
  • FAT32 - FAT32-formatted storage devices only support max files sizes up to 2000MB. Setting a max file size greater than 2000MB creates 2000MB files on FAT32-formatted storage devices.
  • NTFS and FAT32 - The minimum file size permitted is 200MB.
  • CD or DVD - Select the file size that is appropriate for the media.
  • Volume Backups - Supported on all versions of backup client.
  • Folder Backups - Requires backup client 9.5 or later.
  • Synthetic Full - Not supported.

The list of machine IDs you can select depends on the machine ID / group ID filter. To display on this page, machine IDs must have backup software installed on the managed machine using the Backup > Install/Remove page.
