[Networker] Question on null directives?
2009-06-17 15:30:55
If you have a null directive in place, and you copy the affected path
name/data from host A to host B, and you then put that same directive in
place for host B, what will happen when NW runs the first initial level
full on that new save set?
Will the fact that it doesn't yet have any index entries for that data
still allow it to obey the directive? I can see that it would in the
case of the 'skip' directive, but not sure about 'null'. In this case,
it never will have any such entries unless you remove it, run the full
and then re-add it, so it might not obey the 'null'? Or maybe it will
know that it doesn't have any such index entries so there's nothing to
maintain in which case it's tantamount to a 'skip'?
Thanks.
George
