it seems that problem solved itself (well, i certainly didn't)... after i found out how to do a job estimation for an incremental backup and that estimation appeared to be sane, i re-run the job and since then the backup volume is as expected (1.1GB rather than 1.3TB). my fileset now includes the "noatime = yes" directive, since i don't see how this could do any harm and mayne (just maybe) it did indeed fix the problem. thanks for your support. fgmasdr IOhannes ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow!
