Backup and Restore operations seem to be using default operations that are not documented. What am I doing or assuming wrong?
Backup: /VB option being used, yet not requested.
Per your log file, backups seem to be made with the /VB option set, but byte-for-byte validation was not requested. (see below)
It should be noted that in most cases, PostValidate=0x1 means a standard validate. Only in the case of a COPY operation will PostValidate=0x1 check that each byte was copied.
Restore:
Restore: /csig and /nvn options are being used, yet not requested. Log seems to indicate otherwise. (see Below)
Where did the /CSIG and /NVN:"" come from? They are not the defaults, and I did not set them anywhere?
The manual states for : /csig : Default if omitted: Image for DOS will not change the restored disk signature, drive GUIDs, or partition GUIDs.

Re: Default Options Defaulting the wrong way?
for /csig - that is the restore option which has a checkbox, did you check
it by mistake?
/nvn:"" won't do anything, but it should be something other than empty, you
did this interactively using the CUI or GUI version?

Re: Default Options Defaulting the wrong way?
In IFL and IFD GUI "Show Command", I'm seeing /nvn:"" too.
Re: Default Options Defaulting the wrong way?
Did not check anything, just used the defaults and WCO and V from my environment setting and whatever was in the /ini file, using IFD GUI.

Re: Default Options Defaulting the wrong way?
I couldn't reproduce the V from the environment changing to VB. Does it do
it when using /v on the command line instead of environment?

It is a placeholder for the con option, that does not work anymore. I will change it.
Thanks for giving it a complete, real-life test. Your support staff take that little bit of extra time to go above and beyond what your competitors do. It is appreciated.
Thank you very much.
