Another thing to add is that if you backup to DLT then you should by a
truckload of these and store them somewhere very safe.
I doubt you will ever be able to read the tapes after 10 years, forget about 20
years.
If you need to archive then you should use an acceptable archive solution, i.e.
like punch cards or paper tape as these don't have a problem with reading when
you find somebody (pensioner) that still knows how the data is coded. Btw: Have
you seen any 8" Floppy Disks lately ? I have, in a Museum. I can still remember
the CPM80 machine I had 20 years ago using this type of media.

Hi,
That is Networker 'working as designed' - you can't see the files
because they weren't there when the backup was run. Even though you backed up
an incremental, the index for that time shows all files that existed on the
server AT THE TIME OF THE BACKUP, the list will include files that were backed
up on the full backup that were not deleted or changed (so not backed up on the
incremental backup) as well as the changed files backed up with the incremental
backup.
Trust me, Networker is a lot easier to get on with if you don't try to
make it do things it is not designed to. Have a think about it, do you really
want to see all files that have existed since the last backup? What about a
restore, you restore a folder from a certain date and a user complains that
you've restored a file that was deleted several days before that date. It's a
minefield you're straying into. Beware....
Bob.

Importance: High
Hi,
We have a restoring situation here.
We backed up large amounts of files in a directory (20 years browse and
retension time). Then we delete those files. Afterwards, we added new files (
completely different files) to the same directory and done an
we then done an incremental backup. This incremental backup spread a new a
volume. Somehow ( we did some operations, cloning and removing clonned volume.)
above (full and one inremental) two save sets became revorable. We then remove
and scan those volumes by using scanner command.
When we try to restore files in full backup, we cannot restore them ( recover
command cannot find files in index db). It only gives us file in incremental
backup. We need to change browse time to get files in full backup. However we
don't want to behave like that. Recover command be able to restore all files
without changing browse time. How can we do that?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Yener KILIÇ
