Fast Catalog File rebuild option and Catalog backups.

When backing up to CDR using the Fast Catalog File rebuild option and my backup set selectors include the retrospect catalogs, will I get two copies of the active backup set catalog on my CDR?

 

If yes, then I think I need to put in a selector condition to exclude the backup set's individual catalog file.

 

Comments?

Hi

 

You will indeed get 2 copies.

 

The only thing to look out for is this:

After the catalog gets too big (about 300MB or so for CD media) Fast catalog rebuild will turn itself off to save space on media. That is a pretty huge catalog though so I think you are safe on excluding it for now.

 

Thanks

Nate

Thanks for the information

 

This fact is not in the help or Manual.

I think it needs to be present wherever the Fast Catalog Rebuild option is discussed.

Especially that part about the 300MB issue.
