What's the "red circle with a backslash inside" indicates when browsing NDMP backups?

[mark_liu]

When I was trying to browse a specific day NDMP backup, almost every item shows a symbol "red circle with a backslash inside". Please see attached.

What's the "red circle with a backslash inside" indicates ? I never seen that before.

And I tried to restore some volums, restore job can run successfully but users said nothing retrieved. Thank you.

For example:

found the answer https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/what-does-meana-red-circle-front-filename

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.

Thank you.
