Simon,

If you remember I had posted a problem, where my cum incremental backup
would be as close as the FULL backup on SUN. The daily update as per the app
admin was arnd 4 GB.

With the help of multiple responses I zeroed in on the problem and found
that the FULL and INCR policies were different. Since then we have combined
both into one and the backups really matching the calculations.

Regards,
PP BIJU KRISHNAN
