Bug Description
[In:Percona XtraBackup Documentation]
On page... https:/
It states...
"Both xtrabackup and innobackupex tools supports incremental backups, which means that it
can copy only the data that has changed since the last full backup. [snip]
[snip] An incremental backup copies each page whose
LSN is newer than the previous incremental or full backup’s LSN."
The two paragraphs are mutually exclusive. Either a 'incremental' is based off the last 'full' or the 'last full or last incremental'... not both.
I believe the first paragraph should read like this...
"Both xtrabackup and innobackupex tools supports incremental backups, which means that it
can copy only the data that has changed since the last >incremental or< full backup. [snip]
