I have several servers that the backup jobs run for 10+ hours. Today's mess is
a Windows server that has a huge D:, but much smaller C:, E: and F: drives. We
want to do VSS backups. The general idea is to split the backup of this one
server into two jobs.
If I do this:
FileSet {
Name = "blah_a"
Ignore FileSet Changes = yes
Enable VSS = yes
Include {
Options {
IgnoreCase = yes
signature = MD5
compression = LZ4
DriveType = fixed
}
File = / # Means all drives
}
Exclude {
File = "D:/" # Exclude biggest drive # ----
}
}
and I watch in the tray monitor, it seems to scan all of the drives. Does the
Exclude I put in get applied after the scan? The scan of the excluded drive
takes 1-2 hours.
If I do this:
FileSet {
Name = "blah_a"
Ignore FileSet Changes = yes
Enable VSS = yes
Include {
Options {
IgnoreCase = yes
signature = MD5
compression = LZ4
DriveType = fixed
}
File = C:/
File = E:/
File = F:/
}
}
The backup job does not invoke VSS.
How can I backup some drives on a Windows box, use VSS and not have the
unnecessary scanning going on?
Thanks.
