Obtaining correct incremental backups after reversion

Reversion effects on backup and restore  Top

All files in a reverted volume have timestamps that are the same as those when the snapshot was created. After a reversion, incremental backup and restore operations on the file or volume cannot rely on the timestamps to determine what data needs to be backed up or restored.

Step

Action

1

Perform a base-level backup of the volume after you restore it.

2

If you need to restore data from tape, use only backups created after the volume was restored.
