That one saveset, labeled DISASTER_RECOVERY:, is very small, however since
it *also* backups up all the "system critical volumes", in reality, if you
submit a backup job using only the saveset DISASTER_RECOVERY:, it is much
larger than just a few KB in size.

As I have said, the DISASTER_RECOVERY: saveset pulls in other volumes as
well (or can). So saying it;s only a few KB in size is misleading. I have
2 servers where issuing a backup job that includes only saveset
DISASTER_RECOVERY results in jobs over 700G in size.
In your example, the DISASTER_RECOVERY: saveset would be all of drive C:
and all of drive H:. That is certainly more than a few KB.
