[QUOTE="webrider, post: 1861613, member: 405570"] My customer has crawled the backup and yes a folder of about 500 GB is missing. Here is the backup from this morning (in French sorry it's the system language) : [ATTACH type="full"]32379[/ATTACH] And the actual files on the Mac built-in drive : [ATTACH type="full"]32380[/ATTACH] The top most library of 517,22 GB is missing in the backup from this morning. What I think is that there is a database somewhere which says "hey this huge folder has been backup up on a USB hard drive, don't do it again unless there is some modifications". If I'm right, my question is : how to reset this database to tell TM to backup everything from scratch ? Thanks for your help, webrider [/QUOTE]
