Archive Bit
Now that we’ve heard more about
backup, we can talk more about the archive bit. What is the archive
bit?
This is an attribute that indicates
a file status regarding the backup attribute applied to the file.
It can be set to either ON or OFF. Each time a program or file is
used or opened, the network operating system (NOS) checks to see if
the information in the file has changed, and if so, sets this bit, if
it is not already set. When the backup program runs, it checks
each file’s archive bit and includes the file or program
in the backup if the archive bit is set, thus saving the changes.
The archive bit is turned off when
a full or incremental backup is performed.
