I am able to use nsrinfo to see that the directory (empty) was backed
up on the last full save -- and that another directory that the
system admin originally said was not available is completely there.
I am able to use "recover -t <nsavetime of last full> -c <client>"
and browse into the D:\users directory -- as nsrinfo says I should,
and not into D:\BHCommon as nsrinfo also says I should not.
Question: Is there a way to see what was really backed up (short of
doing a full recover of the ssid)? If the answer is scanner -- help
my feeble brain figure out what options to pass to it.
Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but you can view all the
files in a saveset via this method:
mminfo -q ssid=3145699585 -r sscreate,client,name,nsavetime
created client name save time
10/18/09 hostname.uwo.ca /data01 1219101438
nsrinfo -t 1219101438 hostname.uwo.ca
Thanks, but since the veracity of the index was in question at the time,
depending on the index was not something I was willing to do. The
scanner piped into "uasm -rnv" gave me the list of files that were
really on the tape and allowed to me to find out that the index was
correct and then move onto figuring out why the directory was really not
being backed up.
