ETA? On software? Ha ha ha! That's funny, Ben! You crack me up, man... ;-) Sorry. Couldn't help myself. I could say early Q2, 2001, but we _are_ talking about backup software here. That means that any bug that causes data loss is unacceptable. So, whenever coding and testing is complete. Still,

Since this comparing is one of the keys to Retrospect's ease of use (something I wouldn't want to give up), I hope you are considering ways to make it faster. I'm only going to be wanting to back up more clients with more files (most likely a lot of small ones rather than a few big ones) in the f

Doug is correct, though the limit is somewhere closer to 300,000 files. Retrospect for Windows 5.15 (and earlier) has an unexpected memory usage limitation (i.e., a bug) that prevents it from successfully scanning a volume containing more than 300K files. In such a case, Retrospect will respond wi

Wow. There's a lot to respond to, here! I'll start with IncrementalPLUS, Snapshot, and the scanning and matching process. Retrospect's normal backup operation is something we call IncrementalPLUS. Essentially, it's an incremental backup, but with one major difference from the way that all other f

How Long does this take for you?

I have questions for y'all: When running a backup operation of a LOCAL disk (RAID 5 Array, actually)to a DLT7000 drive, I noticed that the Performance reported varied widely, from a high of 450MB/min to a low of 13 MB/min, and the "Time Remaining" would jump around pretty much based on this. Is
