[Veritas-bu] Full vs Incremental Backup

Which is exactly why the Archive Bit is evil and stupid, and should not be
used for backups. You can run an NTBACKUP to a CD, and it will clear your
archive bit. Then NetBackup won't back up the file. That's stupid. Mtime
should be used only.
If you agree, then you will want to change the default behavior of
NetBackup by setting the following registry setting:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Veritas\NetBackup\CurrentVersion\Config]
"Use_Archive_Bit"="NO"
