Selecting Folders Compared To Selecting Files - HP BB118BV - StorageWorks Data Protector Express Package User Manual

If you select the latest version, Data Protector Express will verify the most recent version of that file or
folder.
In general, if you want to verify a specific version of the file, you must select that file directly and specify
which version you wish to verify in the Versions of... window.
Note that when you specify a version date for a container, such as a folder or a volume, only those files
which have matching version dates will be selected. If a file does not have a version date that matches the
date of the container, it will not be selected. On the other hand, if you want only certain files to be
verified, you can specify the version date of a container to only select those files with matching version
dates.
You can select the contents of the folder in one of two ways: either by individually marking the selection
box of each object in that folder one-by-one or by marking the selection box of the folder itself. Which
method you choose is important because it affects which files Data Protector Express includes in the
selection list after changes have been made to that folder.
For example, if you select a folder for verifying by marking its selection box, all of the contents of that
folder are verified. If a new backup job is run before the verify job is run, Data Protector Express selects
files for verifying using the new folder's contents. So, for example, if a new file is created in that folder,
Data Protector Express will also verify that file. Additionally, if you have selected the latest version of the
folder, Data Protector Express will use the latest version of each file in its catalog. These files may be
newer than the files you originally selected.
