You would have to manually delete those files. NetBackup doesn't have that function AFAIK. If you are restoring an entire file system this could be accomplished by newfs (UNIX) or a format (Windows). ------------------ Jim VandeVegt | Technical Integrator, ETG Physicians Mutual | 2600 Dodge Street | Omaha, NE 68131 402.930.2649 | PhysiciansMutual.com | [email protected]

All I need is a reliable method of returning the partition to exact state as it was when last incremental backup was taken - I was hoping True Image Backup would do that, but it seems to have the same behaviour in regards to the files created between full and incremental backups. Any suggestions on this?
