Re: Days Since Last Access

We had a system that was connecting to the server 4 times a day, so last
access was always less than 1. I crashed and burned, got rebuilt -- and
the most recent backup was 15 months old.

And I *still* can't get the NT admins to check the logs on any regular
basis.

"Days since last access" just tells you the last time there was
communication between the client and the server.
It doesn't tell you anything about whether the client was backed up, or
not.

The communication could have been a single restore; 
or it could be the client scheduler just checking for a backup time.
Or you could have a client backup that started, but did not complete
successfully.

To verify whether the client has been successfully backed up, look at
  
q filespace nodename f=d

Look for the "last backup end" date for each client filesystem to see
when it last backed up.

hello,
      When I do a q node to find out what nodes are being backed up, I
see
that "<1" means it is being backed up properly. But at times I see "1" ,
"2", "3" ......" some big number " without "<" attached to it , my
question
is what is the definitive number to say it is still being backed up
without
digging through the details I have been told that "1" .. up to "3" is
still
ok. Thank you for clarifying.

Node Name                   Platform     Policy Domain      Days Since
Days Since     Locked?
