This obviously fails the backup task but I was wondering what the effect is on the media set. Will the media set grow in size if a backup gets through most of the process and then fails or is the backup rolled back so the media set stays as it was? Looking at the backups tab for the media set, it seems to me that the media set does grow in size in case of failure. This seems the sensible course of action to me but I would just like to check if that is indeed the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lennart_T Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Yes, the files backed up before the failure are indeed kept in the backup set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
