Hello, we recently enabled DFSR replication from one file server to another and enabled VSS/Shadow copies on these servers. Since that time my full backups of the primary server reduced from 1220GB to about 18GB and my differentials are slightly smaller (~15GB). Initially I removed backing up of the Shadow copy components because I saw a couple of other exceptions and later stopped the backup job from using AOFO which didn't seem to help either. We do not manage the backups of the secondary server.
I am not very familiar with these technologies, DFSR and the shadow copies component as they were recently deployed by an integretor without much thought to training and our current backup protocals.
We are using Backup Exec 2012 v14r1798 and the target is MS Server 2012 R2.
What's going on here and how do I configure this job to backup my shares?
Currently Backup Exec is backing up all the physical drives of the VM and the system state, shadow copy components are not selected.
Thanks in advance!
