Re: [Networker] Windows Server 2008 with 7.4 SP4 - VSS SYSTEM FILESET:\

Fazil,
The 2008 server backup is a fresh OS install on a box with no file scan
or anti virus. It is just a clean OS install. There aren't even any
users on the box. So there is no activity, and yet an incremental "All"
backup generates this very large saveset for the VSS SYSTEM FILESET:\. I
am hoping the hot fix Mike Borkowski has pointed out will do the trick.

Hello,
Is there a file scan or virus scanner type of program running on the
server daily, that could change the archive bit of the client every day ?
which files are backed up, have you tried restoring them to check, if they
indeed changed or not ?
What is the total size on the server file system, which windows partition
are this file on ?also, look into the patch mentioned below.
Thanks

We've seen > 200GB "VSS SYSTEM FILESET"'s. After working with EMC for
eight months they came out with a 7.4.3 and 7.4.4 fix. The fix was
LGTsc20343. Our saveset's are now under 1GB :-)

Hello,
I am just starting to backup Windows Server 2008 systems using Networker
7.4 SP4. The Save set: is "All". When doing incremental backups, even
with no activity on the host between backups, I always get a HUGE
saveset for the VSS SYSTEM FILESET:\.
server.name.ca: VSS SYSTEM FILESET:\ level=full, 11 GB 01:10:01 73151
files
Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a workaround? Getting 11 GB
of data on every incremental backup really adds up over time.
Thanks,
Mark
