Thanks everyone,
The recover performed as expexted. Newtworker first mounted the last inc tape,
read for a while.. wrote out a few
files, then mounted the full and read forward. I had an opportunity to test
this. Most machines here we would want all files, but this particular machine
is dynamic in that files get created and purged each day and old files
would cause confusion.
Thanks again!
Guy

Gary,
I believe the unwanted file will not be restored. You would only perform one
restore setting the browse time after the completion of Wednesdays incremental
The list of files presented for restore will look the way the disk did after
Wednesdays backup thus the file will not be in the list. If you find this not
to be true let me know.

Greetings,
I have been asked to verify the process of recovering a failed disk.
Supposed we do a full backup on Sunday, and incrs on Monday and Tuesday.
On Wednesday, the disk fails.
I would think that during the recover, setting the browse time for Wendesday,
Networker would take what it needed from the full and the 2 incs. However,
the question was asked about what happens if a unwanted file was deleted
on Sunday after the full. Is there a way Newtworker would know that the
file was delete and recovery is not wanted?
Thanks in advance.
