Non-full backup of Solaris files with modified extended attributes

When you change the extended attributes for a Solaris file, but you do not modify the file, the action does not update the change time (ctime) for the file. As a result, the NetWorker software does not know that the extended attributes for the file have changed since the last incremental backup, and any non-full scheduled backup of the file system will not back up the file.

To ensure the file is backed up, use the touch command or otherwise modify the file so that the ctime is updated. Alternatively, perform a manual backup of the file. Manual backups provides more information.
