I wouldn't think it would be a problem. But with Duplicity it can
do both for you at the same time. The first time you run Duplicity
it will create a full backup then after then it will create
incremental backups. If you are wanting to have those separate you
could have one folder for full backups and another for incremental
backups. The incremental backup folder will have at least one full
backup in there. If you plan to run 2 different sessions of
Duplicity I would make sure that they are ran at different times to
avoid any issues. There are probably better ways about doing this
than what I just described.

Hi everyone,
does anyone have any experience what happens if two duplicity
instances run at the same time, processing the same "unit of work"?
I'm thinking of this, because I'd like to do incremental backups
every hour, and full backups once a month (or maybe a week).
Unfortunately, a full backup lasts much more than an hour, so
doing a full backup and an incremental backup would overlap each
other.
Would this corrupt the backup chain?

Andreas
