modified, and creates an incremental backup to capture the changes.

6.6. Managing mounted images

Once a volume is mounted, you can browse files and folders contained in the backup using a file
manager and copy the desired files to any destination. Thus, if you need to take out only a few files
and folders from a volume backup, you do not have to perform the recovery procedure.
