Hello All,

I am attempting to backup a win7 64-bit machine.  It is using VSS as needed and 
the backup runs with no errors or warnings.  The problem I have encountered is 
that there is an Outlook .ost file that is about 4GB in size.  When I was 
looking at the files that were backed up using bconsole and restore, the 
filename is prefixed with a "~" and the given a ".tmp" extension.  After I mark 
that file and then use estimate it says 1 file to restore, 5,832,704 bytes.  
Which is definitely not the right size.

I see in the messages:

JobId 143: Generate VSS snapshots. Driver="VSS Vista", Drive(s)="C"

and several:

JobId 143: VSS Writer (BackupComplete):

and that the fd and sd backed up and wrote about 85GB.

I am not sure why the oct file did not get backed up correctly?

Ideas?

Thanks,
jim
