Sample Verification Log

Timestamp—The last modified date and time of the file

Size—The size, in bytes, of the file

Mask—The attributes associated with the file. See further details below.

Security descriptors—The NTFS file permissions of the file. If the file permissions are different,
the message "Security descriptors are different" will be logged. If the file permissions are the
same, nothing will be logged.

Bytes out of sync—The number of bytes that are not synchronized between the file on the
source and the file on the target. If the data in the file is identical, the message "0 BYTES OUT OF
SYNC" will be logged. If the file is different, the message will indicate how many bytes were
different. This message does not indicate that the file was remirrored during the verify.
The mask must be converted in order to determine what attributes are assigned to a file. The mask
is a hexadecimal number corresponding to a binary number that indicates what the attributes are.
Using the following steps, you can determine how the mask corresponds to the attributes of a file.
1. Each mask begins with 0x. Identify the hexadecimal number after the constant 0x. For example,
if the mask is 0x23, then the hexadecimal number you are interested in is 23. The hexadecimal
number may be up to four digits.
2. Convert the hexadecimal number to its 16-digit binary equivalent. You can use the Windows
calculator for this conversion.
a. Select Start, Programs, Accessories, Calculator.
b. Switch to scientific view, if it is not already in that view, by selecting View, Scientific.
c. Select Hex.
d. Enter the hexadecimal number, for example 23, as specified in your verification log.
