Re: [Veritas-bu] Win2k8 Clients - Query on exe files

Hi Jonathan

No, not yet... I wanted to see if it was just me... but the screenshot you show is identical to what I am seeing here!

the wierd thing is, the .exe files path is on an E: Drive.... What I noticed is that the Services in the Services Applet are pointing to these .exe, so I can only assume the files are hidden in these containers.

But would be nice to verify this, without a restore if poss !

Same issue here, 6.5.6. Master, 6.5.6 Windows 2008 x64 Client.

For example C:\Windows\Regedit.exe is missing in the OS backup of C:\

Also unavailable from the command line: bplist.exe -l "C:\Windows\*.exe", but some other executables are. (C:\Windows\FramePkg.exe for example.)

Have you tried restoring the system state to an alternate location? I’ve done this in the past with windows registry hive files with some success.

Evening,
I think I could be going mad. I tried tried this on 2 NBU environments (6.5.6 and 7.0.1) and I am able to reproduce the same problem.

I have some Services that run on windows 2008 clients that have .exe files in folder.
The trouble is, when I do a restore, the .exe files are not present.
I see System State listed, and although I can expand the container, I am NOT able to drill down to see individual files!

For example, I have a container called System Files.... but I have no idea if my .exe files are in there. Is anyone got 2k8 clients out there that could check if their .exe files are getting backed up, or am I over looking something!

Regards

Simon
