Netbackup, by default, uses mtime for incrementals. It can be configured to use C-time in bp.conf but that's not usual at all. More here: http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/200644.htm -M -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Randy Doering S

Mystery solved - or so it seems. Last week we had a helpdesk ticket where the user wanted some chmod/chgrp modifications of all files/directories in this area. My co-worker did that on Thursday/Friday of last week. Seems this changes the ChangeTime (ctime), which NBU is using for determining if

[Veritas-bu] VCB and Linux hosts

Hello, I am planning a VCB deployment and would like to know how others handle their Linux virtual server backups. Since you can't do an image level incremental back for Linux hosts, do you run a full backup every night for your Linux hosts? Do you use a hybrid method with an image level back

You have to setup Cumulative incremental I believe as ndmp backup levels go to 9. After 9 every backup is a full backup unless reset. Cumulative incremental resets it so you'll get a differential next. This is the case on NetApps. -- Rajmund Siwik Broadcom Corporation _
