Re: Guarding against backup loss/damage

Hi, About the test: in catalog, each file has an id. If that file was deleted from source and from destination (by FBackup), the file with that id will be marked in catalog as deleted and it will no longer be tested, no matter in which backup version it was included. About your last question: In Sch...

Re: Guarding against backup loss/damage

Hi,

The differences between (b) and (c) are:

Re: Guarding against backup loss/damage

Hi,
