It looks like to me that you don't have a problem, the 5,752 files (out of
26,890 total ) that you backed up with the incremental backup represents the
over 90% of your total storage (25.6 GB out of 26.7 GB , if we are talking about
the same client and the same objects).
Maybe your users might know, they probably ran something ?  / reinstalled
something ? ......

Hello Everyone.  Our incremental backup of one NT client
took longer than normal to complete.  It ran as if it was a
full backup. I looked at the dsmsched log and it showed the
process ran as incremental.  The following is a comparison
of a full backup to our daily incremental:

The incremental backup has been running fine since last night.
Any idea? Any suggestion on how to fix this?
