Files have future Creation Date Causing Backup Issues

Question

Good morning Community,
I am seeking some expertise in how to obtain all File Creation Dates for a shared drive consisting of over 7TB of files.

Some files contained in the 7TB+ has Creation Dates that are in the future which is causing issues with the Dell IDPA DP4400 Backup Appliance from successfully backing up the NFS share.

I have seen some PS scripts online. Additionally, I tried to access the share via command line to run one of those scripts but was unsuccessful.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Edward
