We're doing some DR practice, and have run into an issue that I can't seem to get around. Scenario: W2K departmental file server. Have good backup, BackupExec 9.1. Need to restore all data files to different hdw. Problem: Restore works fine; all files and folders present and accounted for, but folder timestamps all change to current date and time. Need to maintain existing folder timestamps. File timestamps OK, but not folders. This will impact ability to sort folder list by age as needed by some business groups.
I have tried BE, NTBackup, xcopy, and robocopy. All of them change the folder timestamp. I have not tried FRS to maintain a mirror, mainly because this one file server has 25gb of data on it, and the goal is to be able to restore, not maintain a duplicate. Any ideas how to preserve the timestamps on the folders? Thanks! ********************** Charlie Kaiser MCSE, CCNA Systems Engineer Essex Credit / Brickwalk 510 595 5083 ********************** List info : http://www.activedir.org/List.aspx List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/ListFAQ.aspx List archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/activedir%40mail.activedir.org/
