Specifies the mode for the backup session. Full mode backs up all specified
files. Incremental[1-9] backs up only a subset of the specified files, based
on whether or not the files were modified since the last Full or lower-level
Incremental backup. Default is the Full mode. The level of incremental
backup is based on the level number which is specified. For example, an
incremental level 3 backs up only those files (of the specified files) which were
modified since the last incremental level 2 or lower backup.
-touch
Whenever a file is opened, read, or locked, which happens during backup, the
file's access time attribute changes. By default, after backup, Data Protector resets
the file's access time attribute to the value it had before backup. However, on
UNIX, this resetting of the access time attribute modifies the file's change time.
If the -touch option is specified, Data Protector does not reset access time
attributes. Then, on UNIX, Data Protector can also use the file's change time
(inode modification time) as an incremental backup criterion. As a result, files
with a changed name, location, or attributes are backed up in an incremental
backup.
This option is not supported on Novell NetWare.
-no_hlink
If this option is specified, then hardlink detection is disabled and hard links are
backed up as normal files. This speeds up the first traversal of the filesystem.
-enh_incr
This option enables enhanced incremental backup. Unlike conventional
incremental backup, enhanced incremental backup reliably detects and backs
up files with changes in name, location, and attributes. It is also a prerequisite
for subsequent object consolidation (synthetic backup).
NOTE: After you select this option, incremental backup will run in the enhanced
mode only after a full backup is performed.
-clp
This option, used together with the -enh_incr option, enables enhanced
incremental backups using the Windows NTFS Change Log Provider. A list of
files to be backed up will be generated by querying the Change Journal rather
than performing a file tree walk.
-size FromRange ToRange
Limits backup to those files only, of which sizes are in the specified range. The
sizes are set in KB. If you set ToRange to 0, all files larger then FromRange
will be backed up.
