Craig,
I'm very curious as to what has happened with incrementals that causes you
to say that they don't work. In all the installations I've done I've never
had a case where they *didn't* work (and I've had systems with anywhere from
a single machine to over 500 machines work without a hitch). I'm wondering
if you are expecting them to act in a certain way that is different than how
they actually function.
Incrementals using Retrospect are handled *very* differently than other
backup software implementations. What were you hoping for/expecting them to
be and what kinds of problems were you having?
I'd be happy to work with you on this off-list with a summary to the list if
you'd like.
Pam
