Hi Paul,
If you run mmbackup with "DEBUGmmbackup=2", it keeps all working files even
after successful backup. They are available at MMBACKUP_RECORD_ROOT
(default is FSroot or FilesetRoot directory).
In .mmbackupCfg directory, there are 3 directories:
updatedFiles : contains a file that lists all candidates for backup
statechFiles : cantains a file that lists all candidates for meta
info update
expiredFiles : cantains a file that lists all candidates for
expiration

Hi, I am trying to work out what files have been sent to backup using
mmbackup. I have increased the -L value from 3 up to 6 but only seem to see
the files that are in scope, not the ones that are selected. I can see the
three file lists generated ZjQcmQRYFpfptBannerStart

Hi,
I am trying to work out what files have been sent to backup using mmbackup.
I have increased the -L value from 3 up to 6 but only seem to see the files
that are in scope, not the ones that are selected.
I can see the three file lists generated during a backup, but can’t seem to
find a list of what files were backed up.
It should be the diff of the shadow and shadow-old, but the wc -l of the
diff doesn’t match the number of files in the backup summary.
Wrong assumption?
Where should I be looking – surely it shouldn’t be this hard to see what
files are selected?
Kindest regards,
Paul
