paulgarstki Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 On Win2K Pro -- I copied all data from an old drive (D:AUDIO) to a new, larger drive (also D:AUDIO). The new volume serial number is the same as the old. However, Retrospect 5.5 thinks it is a new volume. How can I tell Retrospect it already backed up this drive (before the I copied it)? This drive is part of a backup set that takes 48hrs. to back up, so I don't want to redo it if possible. Thanks for any help. --paul g Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmyJ Posted May 6, 2004 Report Share Posted May 6, 2004 Retrospect actually doesn't match by location by default. In other words, just moving the data to a new volume in and of itself would not trigger anything in Retrospect. However, from an OS perspective, file attributes have changed in the move process - dates, times, sizes, etc. You can go to Configure > Backup Sets > Properties > Snapshots to see what the file(s) looked like during the original backup (browse a snapshot and get Properties on a file) which you could then compare to a Properties box for the same file as it exists on the hard drive now. This may show you what changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
