Updating files on Terastation when a backup is running
« on: February 07, 2012, 03:39:47 PM »

Hello -

 

I have some questions about backup jobs

  • What happens if a file is updated or a new file is added when a backup job is running a Terastation?
  • In Overwrite Backup (Append Backup) mode the manual says

            "The first time the backup runs, it backs up all files in the source folder just like a normal backup.

              If later, file A is added to the backup source and file B is deleted, the next backup will add file A,

              but file B will not be deleted from the backup destination"

 

 It does not say anything about the files that are updated after last backup. What happens to the updated files? Does it check the time stamp or size of the file and backup the ones that are changed?
