Can someone confirm that my assumptions about incremental AFS backups are correct?
1) Aside from needlessly increasing the size of the dump, there's no harm in setting the -time of an incremental dump to be substantially earlier than it needs to be. 2) If I do a "vos backup X" and later a "vos dump X.backup", then later a incremental dump, the -time in the incremental dump should be the time of the first "vos backup" (or earlier), not the full "vos dump". 3) vos dump X "01/01/2008" is the same as vos dump X "01/01/2008 00:00" In honor of the Evansville, IN school district which lost four weeks of high school grade information due to "an unfortunate and very rare combination of hardware problems and backup configuration settings", I'm sanity-checking all my backup scripts. Thanks for any info. _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
