Always copy unchanged files

Hello,

we try to backup our Virtual Hard Disks from Virtual Server with Shadow Copies.

The main problem is, that the modified date of the file is not changing, although the virtual machine is running.

Is there any option in ViceVersa to always copy soure to destination, regardless if the time changes. CRC is also no option, the files are beyond 10GBs and more.

Any help is welcome,
Thanks,

Thomas

You could try the option "Ignore timestamps" in the Comparison settings (part of the profile settings). If the file size is different it should work....

Thanks,

but does no work. The harddisk file always has the same size and is only expanded on demand.

So, no luck for me, or?

Same timestamp, same size ... there is no option in VV to recopy all files even if timestamp and size is the same, unless you use CRC....
