Hello Timothy, our daily incremental backups do not work correctly for hfs/zfs files. This, because an update in the unix structure is not reflected with the change-bit. Now we found that 'lstat - (z/os rex/unx sysserv)' shows us the last-mod- date. We compare this date with the last-backup-date in the ca:disk filesdataset. If necessary, we backup the vsam dataset with backupCC. With this process, we take care of the versions defined in the managementclass. At the moment that is what the responsible zfs/hfs application people want us to do. Thanks for your help. regards Christian
