Error description
After directory name is renamed between lower and upper case characters, previous directory backup is changed to INACTIVE version as expected after a full incremental backup. Then directory together with client files under this directory are deleted from client system. The client file backup version is still shown as ACTIVE on the server even a full incremental backup has been run. For example, query backup shows: tsm> q backup c:\39336_test\* -ina -subdir=yes Size Backup Date Mgmt Class A/I File ---- ----------- ---------- --- ---- 0 B 09/25/2014 16:00:06 TEST_MGMTC A \\tsmdom\c$\39336_test\Data 0 B 09/25/2014 15:59:36 TEST_MGMTC I \\tsmdom\c$\39336_test\data 1 B 09/25/2014 15:59:36 DEFAULT A \\tsmdom\c$\39336_test\data\39336_test_file.txt This file no longer exists on the file system. A full incremental backup of this filespace does not mark this file as INACTIVE. When this condition occurs, the deleted files will not be expired.
