Since I designed uvbackup to not store a files "image", but rather the current properties of the file as well as the data, you can transport a uvbackup image to any other supported system and restore it (assuming permissions and such). If uvbackup doesn't understand triggers, I would consider that a "bug" (or regression), since one of the (original) goals was to be able to use uvbackup/uvrestore as a complete backup/restoration utility. Lacking the ability to save/restore implemented file system features, seems wrong to me. However, as I am not a "uniVerse" engineer any more, its just my $.02. _________________________________________________________ "I reject your reality and substitute my own" - Adam Savage

I have found no method for moving a file that has had a trigger added between 'Endian's except for creating a temporary, non-triggered file and copying all data into it.
