So the routine would change.Veeam Agent for Windows runs backup at night (stores in local drive or NAS), in the morning he plugs in USB drive and then copy the synthetic full to the new USB drive, unplugs it a few hours later (please ensure that copy finishes).
Whenever he changes the USB drive, click on the batch file to copy. create a batch job that copy *.vbk to the USB drive letter. Set retention period to 2 days, let the backup run for 3 days Set the backup type (eg files, choose folders etc), backup to a local drive or NAS Veeam agent for Windows "free" uses increment backup then converts to reverse increments after it reaches the retention period.so rotating backup repository may not be a good option unless he have a script to copy the synthetic full out to the USB drive (after the initial retention period). What is he backing up (files or DB or while VMs or physical server) ? Each have its owb recovery process and therefore different backup strategies. Always look at backup from recovery point of is useless taking backups that cannot be recovered.
