You can create a full backup, and then several incrementals:
- full
- inc
- inc
This is your primary, and only, backup chain. Now create another full backup
and a few incrementals, to get:
- full
- inc
- inc
- full2
- inc2
- inc2
Since the full2 chain is the latest, this is the primary. The older one(s) are
secondary.
