Using multiple backup disks for Time Machine is perfectly save
I think you will find that A is not on the TM2 drive. No, that it's NOT true. In the comments in the other thread you'll also find references to Ars Technica, which has has some nice technical insight about Time Machine and how it relies on fsevents. And you'll read that Time Machine stores the last known event ID on the backup itself, in an extended attribute Hence, Time Machine knows exactly when the last backup for a certain backup disk was created. So: unless file A is deleted from the filesystem very soon, you'll find it on both backup disks. In your case, something else must have gone wrong. Edited on May 20, '10 10:47:06PM by palahala

Oddly, since no one knows what that 'other thing' could be that went wrong, I suspect it goes wrong for lots of people so the caution still applies. IMHO.

Not too odd to me, as it's really just not how So, care to tell us why you needed a full restore a few days after the backups, for which you claim Yes the pictures would still have been there on May 18th when the May 18th (TM1) backup was done? Maybe this actually calls for a high priority bug report then!

Short version for folks arriving late to the conversation:

Well, you are right. I cannot reproduce the problem... not to say it did not happen to me, it did. Edited on May 22, '10 08:00:09PM by aubreyapple

I've used this script for nearly half a year and haven't encountered any problems with it, except for an occasional reluctance to start backing up (which is immediately solved by manually telling it once to start a backup) Edited on Jun 09, '10 09:15:48AM by Tantali
