The user mailbox backup in the BDRCloud processes 2 user parallelly. For example if you have chosen 5 users to be backed up in a backup job then the first two will be processed parallelly and when user 1 backup is complete then the 3rd user will be processed with the already processing user 2. When user 2 is complete the user 4 will be processed with the already processing user 3 and like wise the queue will go on.

Assuming an interruption occurs while processing user 3. There will be an retry attempt to initiate the backup again and this time the already processed user 1 will not be backed up but will begin with where it left off which is the under processing user 2 and user 3 and continue the backup.

While performing restores, you can find the time stamps with these retried incremental versions of the backup listed which are marked with R-INCR tag.

This information will also be updated in the respective backup reports.
