catalog archive

Performs a full cataloging of all the backups in the specified archive.

Usage tip. To speed up backups, you can prohibit full cataloging by adding the --cataloging=fast parameter to the backup command. Use the catalog backup, catalog archive, or catalog vault command to perform the full cataloging at a later time.
