Hi,

I'm a bit confused now about Cumulative incremental backups - If data is 
restored from last cumulative incremental backup, files that have been created 
between last full and the incremental backup are not deleted by NetBackup, 
which resulted in my restore failing because it run out of space on that drive- 
there were too many new files created after last the incremental.

All I need is a reliable method of returning the partition to exact state as it 
was when last incremental backup was taken - I was hoping True Image Backup 
would do that, but it seems to have the same behaviour in regards to the files 
created between full and incremental backups.

Any suggestions on this?

Thanks
