For simplicity, and knowing that you capture "everything"
about a Windows box, including the System State and Shadow Copy components (ie:
for Windows 2008/2008), it is ideal. It also means all drives on that box are
backed up.
You may have reasons for backing up Windows C: Drive and
Shadow Copy components, if you do not want to backup any other data, and you can
do that as well.
For some of our smaller servers, ALD means that all clients
get put into one policy and everything is backed up, unless we have excluded a
file or folder for that client.
Hope this helps.

Our
environment, HP-UX 11-31 currently running one master and media server running
NetBackup 6.5.2.
Running mostly unix /
Linus backups and a couple windows b/u’s thrown in for good
measure. Let me start this out by stating that I just know enough
Windows to scrape by and get me into trouble. That said,
I’m setting up a backup for a Windows box and have been reading and
trying to figure out exactly what the ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES directive
is used for. Why not just create a policy and point to C:\ for
example? Can someone give me a simple explanation for ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES
and when it should be used?
Thanks in advance…
