Last night Backup Exec for Windows backed up 94 G of data from my Netware 6.5 server (using the Netware agent). The backup job is configured to perform a differential backup based on the status of the file archive bit. Problem is, most of the files backed up do NOT have the archive bit set.
The job is configured to perform a differential backup using the archive bit for file selection. Under options I have set Backup Exec to log "Summary info, directories, files, and the file details". The log shows numerous files without an archive bit set backed up. Going to restore, I find that the files were actually backed up. Checking a selection of backed up files at the server, I verify that the archive bit is NOT set.
Any explanation as to why Backup Exec is backing up files from my Netware server that shouldn't be backed up?
