By default, during a backup, CA VM:Backup does not check for changes in a file space. This setting is suitable for most sites because SFS assures a consistent view of individual files. However, if your site runs applications that require files that are maintained at the same commit level (that is, in sync with each other), have CA VM:Backup make one or more attempts to obtain a consistent view. Specify the maximum number of times that CA VM:Backup is to check for changes (up to 9) in the Number of Tries for a Consistent View of File Space field.
If, after the maximum number of checks, CA VM:Backup cannot obtain a consistent view of the file space, CA VM:Backup backs up the file space and writes a message in the job output report stating that a consistent view was not obtained.
CA VM:Backup cannot detect changes that were made to update-in-place files. All BFS files are update-in-place files. To ensure that you obtain a consistent point-in-time view of BFS file spaces and SFS file spaces that contain update-in-place files, quiesce these file spaces during backups.
