Veritas Netbackup Differential backup policy backs up like full backup

[ramkr2020]

Hi All,

Got an issue on one particular netbackup policy. I have configured a policy with Daily differential backup &Weekly full backup on a file server but it runs Full backup daily, This server was configured earlier with different policy name. Now i created a new policy and named a different policy name for this server. Problems which i am facing with this particular policy are.

*It's not starting as per schedule, have to manually start this policy

*Configured as Daily Differential but it runs full backup

*And at times the policy getting confused with earlier policies configured on same server and backing up only particular drive and folders which were configured earlier. does veritas netbackup stores the old policies configuration some where which makes this contradiction.

Appreciate if any one can help me on this issue. Thanks in Advance.

Ok, i will deactivate the existing policy and create a new policy on friday, then i will run a manual full backup on the same day.. Will it start the normal schedule for the new policy from Monday onwards.
