SV: [Veritas-bu] System_State:\

I have to answer my own mail. It seems like I've solved the problem
though. 
 
When I first made a class with my Win NT clients, I copied a class with
W2K clients and changed the client definitions. When using
ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES, System_State was included and faulted.
 
Then I removed the class and created it from scratch, using the wizard
and Windows NT definition. When using ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES, System_State is
not included anymore.
 
The above is what I think happened. If so, it seems like a bug to me. 
 
Well, it's working ok now so lets not dig to deep into it...

hello again! thanks everyone for good answers! 

I have a follow-up question though: I have clients configured as
"Windows NT" and with file directive "ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES" (and multiplexed
streams allowed) and it still tries to query the client for
System_State:\ resulting in error code 71 (none of the files in the file
list exist). 

Do I have to specify each drive specifically when using Windows NT
clients?

The System_state:\ file directive directly relates to a System State
backup in 
Windows 2000.  System State backups include the Registry, system files,
COM+ 
registration database and more.  You can't do a full restore of a W2K
box 
without this.  For docs on this look at W2K help files or W2K related 
manuals/books. 

System_state:\ is automatically included on a Windows 2000 client if the
file 
directive ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES is being used. 

If you list the drives individually and the class is backing up a
Windows 2000 
client, yes you should include System_State:\.  Otherwise you will not
be 
backing it up.

Hello! 


Couldn't find anything about System_State in the manuals... What is
included 
in the file directive System_State:\ ? 


Do I need to use System_State if I use ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES? 


Do I need to use System_State if I list all my local drives (i.e. C:\
and D:\ 
on separate rows).
