What is the meaning of "Out of date sources" in VMWare Data Recovery?
In VMWare Data Recovery several of our backup jobs show "Out of Date Sources" in the Backup Job Details. Does anyone know exactly what is "out of date" and how to correct the problem?

Just complete or schedule a new backup.

I think it also gives a clear indicator, of how uptodate your current repository is, with backups of your virtual machines, and we find it very handy, if we need to do any changes to a VM, which can just check, and force a manual job to quickly capture a new incremental backup.

Thanks for your help Hanccocka! I thought this was indicating an error of some sort, but your explanation makes perfect sense. I'm not sure why there isn't a better explanation in the admin guide
I'm waiting for VMware to ask us to write it for v2!
