Arcserve Backup Does Not Restore Data Based on File Access Time

Valid on Windows platforms.

Symptom

Arcserve Backup does not restore data when filtered based on the last file access time.

Solution

Using the Restore Manager and the ca_restore command line utility, you can recover files based on the last time they were accessed. However, Arcserve Backup does not store the last file access time in the backup records. As a result, Arcserve Backup cannot restore data based on the last file access time.

The remedy for this problem is to modify the registry key listed below on the agent computer and then submit the backups.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ComputerAssociates\CA ARCServe Backup\ClientAgent\Parameters\FileAccessTimeFlag

Value: 1
