Define "member" please, the Retrospect documentation does not


Recommended Posts

I've been using retrospect for a while and finally decided I better read the doc and really understand what I'm doing. I've always been confused when it says it can't find a member or needs a new member. I look in the help index and search for 'member' and see three entires: add to hard disk, add tape, configuring Backup Set. But there is no actual definition of what a member is.

 

I'm using Retrospect 7.0.31 on Windows XP professional.

Regards,

Ed

Hi

 

A "backup set" is a group of media containing your backup. Each member is a seperate piece of media containing data. For example, if you have a backup stored on 5 CD-R disks there are 5 members in the backup set?

 

Chances are you will only have one member in the backup set if you are backing up to hard disk.

 

Thanks

Nate
