Hi There,

The "red circle with a slash" icon means that the file is read-only on the client's filesystem.

This means that a restore would not be able to overwrite it on the client's disk if you do not have admin or root access to override the file's read-only attributes.

These restore GUI icons are documented in the "Helpful Hints on Locating and Marking Files" part of the "NetBackup 5.0 User's Guide for Unix", page 16 : http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/264257.htm (was unable to find the same in any 6.x guide or technote)

Hope it helps!!

Cheers

Long after everyone's forgotten this thread (and yes, this is how far behind I am in this forum - I will try to read all 263 threads today :) ), here's a TechNote link for you:

DOCUMENTATION: What are the icons in the Backup, Archive & Restore (BAR) graphical user interface (GUI), and what do they represent?

What does this mean,a red circle in front of a filename.
