If the file have not changed, then they won't be backed up again (assuming
you are performing a normal incremental backup).

If the files have changed, then check the FREQUENCY setting of the backup
copygroups. If it is greater than 0, then that would explain the results
you are seeing.

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.
