Nothing. Verify checks that what was backed up matches what is on disk. The new file you added was not included in the backup, and therefore was not included in the verify. Verify does not check that no new files have been added to the backup; it merely verifies that the files that were backed up are identical to their copies on disk. > I'm also interested in a contractor who can look at my > exceptionally simple backup requirements, correct my > conf files and/or fix what problems I have (hardware > all seems worked out now).
