Validating Incremental TIB From ATI 2019 Recovery DVD
Hello,
. I need to validate an old tib file with one incremental copy..
I booted from my ATI 2019 boot disk.l I selected Recovery and browsed to the tib. file I needed and selected it for the backup list. When I expand the file on the backup list I get the following list:
[1] Entire PC ([PC Name])_full_b2_s1_v1
When I expand that icon [1] I get two icons for thre two tib files listed separately beneath it:
[2] Entire PC ([PC Name])_full_b2_s1_v1 [date of original backup]
[3] Entire PC ([PC Name])_inc_b2_s1_v1[date of incremental backup]
When I right click any of these three icons I get an option to validate archive. Does it matter which icon I use to validate the entire archive?
If I validate [3] will it also validate [2]? If I validate [2] will it only validate the original backup [2] ? If I validate [1] will it validate the original [2] and incremental [3] backup files?
Thanks,
Ronald McGuire

Thanks again Steve. Am I correct in assuming that if I have a backup with two incremental backups and I want to restore only from the first incremental backup that I can validate and restore the original and the first increment by selecting the first incremental for validation and restore options and the second incremental backup would then be discarded?

Ronald, yes, that is my understanding too!
