sparky2242 Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 Reposting on this forum .... I'm trying to recover .RDB files that were created w/ Retrospect professional 7.0 (Disk Backup Set) after NTFS Filesystem corruption. It would help enormously if I knew some details of the on-disk format for the meta-data for these files. I have used some data carving tools to find the locations of many of these files and have discovered the offsets to identify 1) backup set 2) member-name 3)member-name index and 4) session name, but I've reused the same backup set name in the past and really need a date stamp of some kind to disambiguate different instances of similar tuples e.g. "Backup Set Delta"/ "1-Backup Set Delta"/ "file index 0"/ "Archives(G:)" Is this info available or is it "secret"? 1. Is there a date the .RDB file was first created/last written (offset/format?) 2. Is there a footer at the end of the file I can identify? 3. Is there meta-data throughout the file or just at the head (and tail?) Any info would be very useful. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
