Re: [Veritas-bu] Million file backup issue
2009-06-30 11:17:22
To add.... The F:\ volume is 521gb with 134gb used. Does this mean the
raw backup is 134gb or 521 as i dont want it filling tape unnecessarily.
Ideally i'd like to do the mount point option and have a policy backing
up the mount point of the problem dirs e.g F:\nic\lsnode but i dont know
how to make a mount point from a current directory in windows.
Cheers
