Verifying save set contents
Sometimes BACKUP Manager cannot copy one of the specified files to
the save set because of a file management conflict (for example,
another user has a file open). In such a case, the save set may not
contain all the files you specified in the Save operation. To verify
that what was written to the save set is the same as what you
specified, turn on the "Verify BACKUP Operation" option in the
Options menu of the Save or Restore screen before starting the backup
operation.
If you turn on the "Verify BACKUP Operation" option, BACKUP displays
an error message if it finds a discrepancy between the contents of
the input and output specifications.
Save sets written to a tape device are verified automatically. Save
sets written to a disk device are not verified automatically.
For information about running BACKUP Manager during hours when the
fewest number of files are likely to be open, see "Running BACKUP
Manager when you are not around" in the "Concepts ..." help topic.
