Yes, that was my thinking as well, hence the clarification post :-)

Simon,

If you remember I had posted a problem, where my cum incremental backup
would be as close as the FULL backup on SUN. The daily update as per the app
admin was arnd 4 GB.

With the help of multiple responses I zeroed in on the problem and found
that the FULL and INCR policies were different. Since then we have combined
both into one and the backups really matching the calculations.

I just wanted clarification on this, to be 100% sure I understand what is
happening.
 
NBU 5.1 MP2 Win2k3 + 2 SAN Media Servers + thousands of clients
 
Scenario: Have a Policy that does Incr & Full for CLIENT1 - Policy is called
"Backup_Client1"
I have have a 2nd Policy, that is deactivated called "Manual_Backup_Client1"
 
now, lets assume the full backup for Client1 failed. If I turn on the
Manual_Backup_Client1 policy, it performs and completes the backup without
any problems.
 
But am I right in thinking the archive bit would be set correctly, so that
when the Policy "Backup_Client1" runs, it is "aware" a full backup was
completed successfully?
 
My thinking is, the policy WONT have a clue, as the Policy that performed
the backup is different, and therefore may not share this info!
 
Clarification?
 
Thanks

Regards
