Tape • Re: [V13] Deprecated and Discontinued features - Reverse Incremental

Hi David, thank you for your answer.
I already read and work with this Q&A, howewer synthetic full backup are not active full backup and doesn't address corrupted blocks problematic.
About space requirement Fast clone repository is theorically a good solution but you rely then on an external technology (like ReFs) that you don't manage and you are not in control.
I fear if the Refs is corrupted you can't know it and all your backup chain is then lost.
About Veeam licensing if your are in CPU mode and not in VUL with a standard version, backup job to tape are not available, so no virtual full tape !
This is why i prefer Active full backup and Reverse incremental. (Rip).

In order to progress on this problematic and keep the same level of protection in V13 as we have in V12 would it possible to build virtual full to tape even if:
- we have sythetic full or active full on disk ? I don't know why it's not possible today in V12.
- we have standard license

Thanks
