The System_state:\ file directive directly relates to a System State backup in
Windows 2000.  System State backups include the Registry, system files, COM+
registration database and more.  You can't do a full restore of a W2K box
without this.  For docs on this look at W2K help files or W2K related
manuals/books.

System_state:\ is automatically included on a Windows 2000 client if the file
directive ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES is being used.

If you list the drives individually and the class is backing up a Windows 2000
client, yes you should include System_State:\.  Otherwise you will not be
backing it up.

Hello!


Couldn't find anything about System_State in the manuals... What is included
in the file directive System_State:\ ?


Do I need to use System_State if I use ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES?


Do I need to use System_State if I list all my local drives (i.e. C:\ and D:\
on separate rows).
