Can you expand on why are you going away from ALL?

 I think you will make a rod for your back by doing this...   The usual
scenario is that 'A.N.Other Sysadmin' adds a new drive letter without
telling you, and 6 months later you discover it has not been backed up
ever.

Also it's worth pointing out that if you have the VSS enabler on your
server, then you will want to ask for 'VSS SYSTEM STATE:\' 'VSS ASR:\'
etc etc instead of the usual ones for your win2k3 or XP clients...

Thanks,

Yes, I was told that Legato "prefers" specific information on drive
letters, rather than ALL, however the few we changed to reflect the
driver letters, we didn't add back in:

System DB:\
System Files:\
System State:\

So, we will now have to ensure that's part of our standard now, since we
are going away from using ALL.
