Are you reading from "Size:" or "Size on disk:"? If there is a significant difference between the two, then that may indicate the presence of "sparse files", in which case you will want to set sparse=yes in your Fileset's Options{} block. It may also be a signal that you have compression enabled on the disk, which you can check by right-clicking on the folder (or suspect files within it), selecting "Advanced", and seeing if anything has "Compress contents to save disk space" ticked. Compressed files will often show with a different non-black text color in Windows Explorer. Another thing to do is to go to bconsole and try: list files jobid=139 And see if there are any files on there which your filset "vegaSet" may be catching which you aren't aware of or are outside the folder you were looking at in Windows. -- --Darien A.
