What that statement assumes is that you installed the Journal Engine before you ever ran the backup and that you shouldn't be surprised to see a longer than normal backup take place. Cool, huh?

I ran a full backup of 2.7 TB. I scheduled the regular incremental backups to run nightly. I noticed that the backup was taking anywhere from 4 - 9 hours to complete. The client was scanning thru approximately 5 million files to backup 40GB - 150GB a night. I installed the Journal engine on the Windows server, and now I notice that I'm spending 8 minutes - 30 minutes a night to backup the client. I ran across a couple posts that say the following: "you'll need a full backup after the journal engine starts" What does that mean based on me having installed the journal engine after I had already done a full backup? Does that mean I need to delete my filespaces, and do a brand new full incremental? If anyone can clairify this for me I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks, James Choate
