Hey guys,
I just started to support a new EV environment. Unfortunaley I find a huge backlog of savesets during the week. It looks like that only the full backup on the weekend successfully sets the archive bit. When the incremental backup is executed it does not change the archive bit.
Enterprise Vault 9.03 on Windows server 2008 R2 SP1
Backup Server:
IBM x3650 server
NetWorker Server 7.6.5 Build 7
Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition SP2
Our backup specialist told me, that Legato is very simple to set up and that there is no difference in the settings from full to incremental backup.
So is Legato in that Version not able to set the archive bit during the incremental backup by design?
I'm just asking here because here are a lot of experienced guys who work with the most different backup tools.
Otherwise I have to ask EMC.
Regards,
Chris

what i can suggest is that you use a trigger file instead of relying on the archive bit. the trigger file would be created or reset from your pre/post backup script.
your other option would be to adjust EV's monitoring paramaters / thresholds so that it meshes with your full backup schedule if you're confident about the backups and only concerned from an EV alerting aspect.

I just have switched to the trigger file on Thursday, but I would say it looks really good.
