DP 9.05 - Permissions and Enhanced incrementals

$
0

Hi, we use enhanced incrementals and it would be really useful if there was an option to ignore permission changes on files when writing the incremental backups. We also noticed that DP detects ACL permission changes, but I cannot find the ACL permissions anywhere in the Restore files GUI files/directories properties.

We know that using normal incremental backups would ignore permissions, but we'd like to retain all the other characteristics of the enhanced incrementals, such as detection of moved, renamed files and the ability to change the backup tree without having to write a new full backup.

Is this possible through any config file setting or, if not, would it be possilble to have this functionality in a future release? Possibly with distinction between normal unix mask permissions and ACLs? Eg.

Option Ignore mask permission changes

Option Ignore ACL permission changes

 

Thanks
