Hi, we're running backups of a few Windows desktops with Bacula. On Windows Vista and Windows 7, you tend to get a bunch of messages like this:
jm-fd JobId 2526: c:/Users/johnm/Documents/My Videos is a different filesystem. Will not descend from c:/Users/johnm/ into c:/Users/johnm/Documents/My Videos jm-fd JobId 2526: c:/Users/johnm/Local Settings is a different filesystem. Will not descend from c:/Users/johnm/ into c:/Users/johnm/Local Settings jm-fd JobId 2526: c:/Users/johnm/My Documents is a different filesystem. Will not descend from c:/Users/johnm/ into c:/Users/johnm/My Documents jm-fd JobId 2526: c:/Users/johnm/NetHood is a different filesystem. Will not descend from c:/Users/johnm/ into c:/Users/johnm/NetHood jm-fd JobId 2526: c:/Users/johnm/PrintHood is a different filesystem. Will not descend from c:/Users/johnm/ into c:/Users/johnm/PrintHood I've noticed mention on lists that these folders are some sort of symlinks though I'm not clear where to -- c:\ seems to be the only filesystem on the box. Can someone explain exactly what these messages are telling us? Should we be at all concerned that they're not being backed up? On a Windows XP machine, we also get some of these, but fewer: tomasv200-fd JobId 2539: c:/WINDOWS/assembly/GAC_32/System.EnterpriseServices/2.0.0.0__b03f5f7f11d50a3a is a different filesystem.
