Retrospect 5.0 makes bigger catalogs than 4.3?
I just replaced my ASIP OS 9 servers with OS X 10.2.3. I also just replaced my OS 9-based Retro 4.3 backup server with Retro 5.0. I also just replaced my DLT 40/80 with a new SDLT 320. I have been busy!
So far, my first test backups went great. No problems. Hovever, I did notice that my catalog size is much bigger than my 4.3 catalogs (backing up the same size of data). 95 MB (in 5.0) compared to last week's (4.3) 75 MB. Is this correct? I used to back up my catalogs to ZIP 100 drives for off-site redundancy. But now they won't fit on a ZIP 100.
I backup two OS X file servers and a OS X FileMaker Pro database server over my LAN from an OS X-based Retrospect/archives Mac. All the clients are up to date.
What are your catalog sizes?
