Ok, I think I get it now. I assumed "all the files required for the latest commit point" meant that the backup would only contain those index files added since the last commit. But instead what you mean is that it contains all the files still required for the index as of the last commit, regardless of how long ago they were created. This is indeed the behavior I see if I play around with the replication handler on a toy index. I think I may be having some problems with the backup facility on much larger indexes, but I'll start a new thread for that. Thanks, Chris
