It will get it all (as if it were a full), but it will still reference the
incrmental schedule name and the fact that it is an incremental backup within
the catalog... so technically it's not running the full schedule (even though
it's doing the equivalent of a full backup).

I never really tested it, but I would think that the bpstart/bpend,
exclude/include lists, mpx value, etc. would be that of the incremental
schedule and not the full.

Thank you.  That's what I thought, but I wanted to clarify since I had seen
some marketing info from CommVault that claims that NBU isn't capable of
doing that.

All the files will get backed up.  Shouldn't be much different from a
full, except that cumulatives wouldn't reference it.
