Support

CrashPlan supports metadata on all platforms.

Supported

• Data fork
• Resource fork
• Owner information for regular files and directories
• Symlink owner information
• POSIX permissions
• Finder Flags/Info (including type/creator)
• Locked flag (this is part of Finder Flags)
• Modification date
• Creation date
• Finder comments (.DS_Store file)
• ACLs
• Other named forks
• BSD Flags, which can be set via chflags
• HFS+ extended attributes (i.e. xattr)
• Aliases

Notes

When copying a file (and therefore restoring) to a non-HFS+ file system, any info not in the data file is stored in a “dot-underscore” file.
For example, if you copy an HFS+ file named MyMug.jpg to a FAT 32 volume, there will be a file named ._MyMug.jpg in addition to the MyMug.jpg file in the same location.
