I have a customer that gets a lot of special reports. One of them is to check and make sure their backup images have been replicated to the DR side. I have some issues i need to work out with the reporting group, but I've come across a problem I've never seen before. Onne of the images that says was not replicated is correct, but I think I know why, but I don't fully understand why it works like it appears to,
From the Disk Reports - Images on disk.
One thing I figured out, the number of files and kilibytes are both zero, which for an incremental backup makes sense and I understand that.
From the catalog that image is not there.
That image is not seen in the catalog. I can understand why, since there is no actual data associated with it, but where does that image that is in the images on disk report come from. I think I need to tell my reporting team to pull the image/backup data a different way, as the way they are doing it now makes it seem like something is not working, and best I can tell it's working perfectly.
