Can anyone explain to me why robocopy always tries to copy some files
everytime it syncs the source and destination even though the files
haven't been modified in some cases for days, months or years? The
options I used are:
Source : \\xyz\abc
Dest : \\def\jkl
Files : *
Options : /TEE /S /E /COPY:DAT /PURGE /MIR /R:1000000 /W:30
The files that do get modified are always changed on the source and
the destination serves as a backup repository. The sync would only go
the other way to restore the lost source system. The files get updated
by both PCs and Sun workstations and the source is also an NFS server
using Hummingbird 2007.
Thank you,
Michael
P.S. I changed the source and dest values since they refer to my
workplace servers.
This happens when the granularity of the date/time stamp of the
two file systems is not the same. One file system might have
a granularity of 1 second, the other of 2 seconds.
