What I ment was that I have not set the option to retain the journal database
when the service is stopped (reboot, restart of service or whatever the cause
is) since I consider that a much higher security risk than that the journal
wouldnt backup certain files. If you retain the database while the service is
stopped, chances are alot of files have been changed that the journal didnt
take notice of.
The option to retain the journal database is setting the tsmjbbd.ini. It's
default set to off, but in some rare cases, you might want to retain it so that
you dont have to redo a normal incremental backup.

Question - how do you "get rid of the journal on reboot?" Is there an option
to trigger this?

Question 1: Journaling, but not OFS as standard Question 2: a) I dont keep the
journal database on a reboot or service shutdown, and since the Windows
machines generally dont have an uptime of +1 year, each time the machines are
rebooted, we get a normal incremental for free. Never seen any problem with the
journal not backing up all files though. Best Regards Daniel Sparrman

client features do you install by default I would like to get some idea of
what features of the Windows client do you install, by default, when doing a
brand-new client install. Folks here are just starting to realize the benefits
of using the Journaling feature (yeah, I know, it is not a new feature - I have
been trying to get folks to use it but until recently when more clients with
millions of objects have been complain about 12-hour elapsed times to backup
20K files, they are now realizing the benefit). So, do you automatically/by
default install the: A - Journaling B - Open File Support C - Both D - Neither
Speaking of the journal, the docs say you should occasionally run a backup
without the journal, just to make sure nothing is missed. How do you do this?
