[Networker] Numeric backup question?
2010-07-15 20:45:48
Kind of a goofy question, and I would never need to do this, but I'm
just curious if this is possible.
Can you run a numeric backup, but have it start with an older date? In
other words, capture all files since the previous lower numbered backup
but only up to, say, a week ago, and not up to the current time?
So, for example, if, as of the current time, there were 500 files that
have changed on a client since the last full, but as of a week ago there
were 419 files that had changed, then force the numeric to back up only
those 419?
If this is possible then I assume that a subsequent incremental should
still capture everything that's changed since the date/time that the
numeric was run because the date/time that the numeric ran would be
recorded in the media database, and the subsequent incremental would be
backing up any files newer than that date/time, correct? As result, it's
not like the next incremental would capture files that had changed since
a week before, or whatever time interval you forced that previous
numeric to not go farther forward in time than, right?
Thanks
George
