DO_NOT_RESET_FILE_ACCESS_TIME option for NetBackup clients

The DO_NOT_RESET_FILE_ACCESS_TIME entry specifies that if a file is backed up, its access time (atime) displays the time of the backup. The default is that NetBackup preserves the access time by resetting it to the value it had before the backup.
