chuckmg Posted July 23, 2005 Report Share Posted July 23, 2005 Have just upgraded to v7.0. Created a Backup Set and script. In the Backup Set creation, the folder for the Catalog was requested but not the folder for the backups (rdb files). After the creation of the Backup Set is finished, the catalog file (.rbf) file appears in the assigned folder. But when a script run with this backup set as Destination, it finished successfully but no *.rdb files are created ... anyplace! When session contents is displayed for this backup set, there are no flags checked? Shouldn't there be? It does show all the files in the source. ??? Have had Retrospect for a long time and never had this experience.

michaeln Posted July 23, 2005 Report Share Posted July 23, 2005 Hi, It sounds like you may have done a backup to a FILE Backup Set instead of a DISK Backup Set. File Backup Sets have a .rbf extension whereas a Disk Backup Set catalog file has a .rbc extension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckmg Posted July 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2005 Yes, you are right! After sending this query to the forum I tried to restore and everything restored properly. But noted that during a backup there is a temp file created *.rbf.rbc in the destination folder which disappears after the backup.??? I am running a 2 processor 64 bit PC but fali to see why that should make a difference. Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
