-ctime difference in the find command

[DShinn]

After reviewing many of the threads - I have seen that fbackup resets the files last access timestamp which also changes the ctime because of this. I was wondering, does Data Protector update the access timestamp?

Thank-you,

Shalom Dorothy,

Data Protector should note the difference between -mtime and the last backup of the file and back it up if -mtime is newer.

In a full backup it does not care, it backs it up.

But what happens to the ctime? The ctime is changing daily on our server and we were wondering if possibly Data Protector update the file access time during a full backup.

Thank-you,

Dorothy
