Hi,
Can anybody explain how the pre-scan prior to backups works.
My understanding (Netbackup 4.5) is that the pre-scan of backups takes place on the initial FULL backup, and then at an intermittent period there after. What is the criteria for this intermittent period, and is this still the behaviour in Netbackup 5.1/6.0 ?
Also, does the pre-scan happen when running Incremental backups, or have any impact when using Synthetic backups ?

If my understanding is incorrect completely
then please put me straight.
In addition, when configuring Synthetic backups it is stated
that the Track moves options is required to be enabled. We have
run our first full backup with intent to start using Synthetic backups, but the
backup was run without this option ticked, can we simply tick this option on now
and everything will work as expected, or does the option have to be ticked prior
to running the first full backup. Any ideas ?
Many thanks in advance
