Configure Full + Incremental Copy Scheme

Hi all, Currently I can only configure incremental backups, which take from the full copy 2 months ago. Could someone please tell me if the following scheme can be configured?: - 1 complete every Sunday and incremental the following 6 days. These in turn will be sent to another unlocalized destination (I already have that configured and it works correctly) Thank you

  The backup configuration won't actually store different configurations, like this by default but you could create a cronjob to run the alternate date.

  Thanks for the reply!! But I'm not looking for different dates, I'm looking for a new complete copy to be generated every Sunday and the following 6 days, incremental on it, and so every week. Thus, in case of recovery, it will be faster, since it only houses 6 days of incrementals on the last complete copy. This case does not appear in your official documentation, but it is a very common case of backup copies. Another solution would be to create a complete and then another configuration with incrementals, but I don't know how to configure CPANEL for this option. The bad thing when configuring incrementals it doesn't let you choose a full base copy, and I don't want to generate a full copy with a task, and then configure incrementals and re-create a new one (doubling the space) From your answer I understand that perhaps through a script and scheduled tasks I can configure this. Could you guide me or give me documentation about it?
