Davidson Posted July 25, 2002 Report Share Posted July 25, 2002 When Duplicating one volume to a subvolume (which I do to keep a current "mirror" of a critical volume... After Retrospect completes the copying phase, and before it begins the comparing phase, it goes through a lengthy (interminable) period of "closing files" whereby Retrospect seems to touch every file -- even when only a handful have been updated. The duration of the duplication process is quadrupled by this "closing" thing. This phenomena did not occur prior to my upgrading Retrospect (Backup) to ver 5.0.205 and my operating system to Mac OS X (i.e., it didn't happened with Retrospect 4 under Mac OS 9). Can someone advise me as to what is happening, and how I might mitigate the problem? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lv2ski Posted July 31, 2002 Report Share Posted July 31, 2002 During this time, on a Mac, this would be copying of AppleShare permissions if Filesharing is turned on. During this time on a Windows machine is, copying NTFS privs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lv2ski Posted August 6, 2002 Report Share Posted August 6, 2002 We also compute icon positions, create folders and copy "identical" files from location to location as needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
