I'm doing a restore of a system and I filled the disk before the restore
finished. I realized that I stored /var/log/lastlog, which is a huge
sparse file because of the uids used on the system. I see that there is
support for storing sparse files by putting "Sparse = yes" in the
FileSet config.
When a restore is done with such a file, is it correctly created as a
sparse file?

Is it possible for me to "fix" a backup that didn't have this option
turned on and do the restore? Or do I just need to skip this file on
this restore because I didn't set the flag on the backup?


Thank you
Jon Schewe
