    Out of the questions, to be fair, the trylogs is useful, as this is effectivly the same as the detailed information in the GUI for a job = easily searchable via the command line (grep etc ... if on Unix)

    The others I would forget about ...

    The ffilelogs is indeed the backup selection for a job - not something I've ever needed to use.

    I don't think I have ever looked in restart until today ...  Given, at least on my system it contains files with jobids that have failed backups, it would appear, that NBU will use this information to restart the failed job should it wish to do so.  In fact it does, as I have just deleted of the files and now cannot 'restart' that particular job.
