Table 3 explains the information in the previous example of a backup history.
Recovering a File with an Earlier Backup Date
If more than one version of a backed-up file exists, NetWorker automatically
recovers the file with the backup date that is earlier than and closest to your
browse time. The default browse time is midnight (23:59:59) of the current day.
For example, if you have three versions of a file with save times of 14:08:10,
14:08:55, and 14:21:44, NetWorker recovers the file with the browse time of
14:21:44 because it is closest to the default browse time of 23:59:59.
You can recover an earlier version of a file by changing the browse time. The
browse time must be later than the save time of the file you want to recover,
