Nick,

Backup doesn't actually do a sweep, it is doing a garbage collection. They
slightly are diferent.

Garbage collection does not resolve the issue of having a data changing
transaction that is rolled back, a sweep does. When doing a backup you
can't invoke a sweep in the command line, only include or exclude garbage
collection.

Cheers,

JAC
