Unitrends recommends this approach because it supports recovering from availability issues with the target appliance (or the WAN connecting to the target appliance) by skipping over older backups when a newer backup arrives. This is particularly important if the connection to the target appliance is unreliable.</td> </tr></tbody></table><table cellpadding="0" style="border-spacing: 0px;"><colgroup><col></col><col></col><col></col></colgroup><tbody><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1" valign="top">•</td> <td colspan="1" rowspan="1" valign="top"><strong>Maximize Retention</strong> – If it is important to you to ensure that every backup on the source is copied to the target, choose the Maximize retention queue scheme.</td> </tr></tbody></table><table cellpadding="0" style="border-spacing: 0px;"><colgroup><col></col><col></col><col></col></colgroup><tbody><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1" valign="top">•</td> <td colspan="1" rowspan="1" valign="top"><strong>Manual</strong> – To copy backups to the target manually, choose the Manual queue scheme.
