Bypass comparison and copy unconditionally

[palmersteel1]

I am backing up the data folder for an MSSQL server. It contains mdf and ldf files. I back them up every two hours and I don't need to compare source to target since I know that they have changed. The time stamp of course is useless since SQL server does not affect the time stamp. Currently I have figured out a workaround by using the CRC comparison and having it check only the first 100 bytes (to speed things up). When execution takes place it will give me a CRC check failed error but it does go ahead and copy. Is there another way to force the copy and bypass compare step?

Use option :

Files with these extensions are always newer in source: This option instructs ViceVersa to consider files with certain extensions to be always newer in source, so that the files are copied to the target each time regardless of their time stamp. You can specify multiple file extensions by using a separating comma (e.g. *.mdf, *.ndx). For example, Microsoft SQL database files require this option because the database file time stamps are never updated.

You can also specify *.*

The option is in ViceVersa profile settings -> comparison

thanks
