Archive Manager Advanced Options

The Advanced option for archiving determines how Arcserve Backup handles the file system extensions when an archive job is running.

The Windows system options are as follows:

Note: The following options are not supported on Windows operating systems that are older than Windows XP.

Note: When you apply the Traverse Directory Junctions and Volume Mount Points and Archive Mount Points as Part of the volume that they are mounted options to named, mounted volumes that contain virtual hard disks (VHDs), Arcserve Backup creates separate archive sessions for mounted volumes that contain VHDs.

Example: Mounted Volumes that Contain VHDs

A server contains physical disk (C:\) that contains VHDs D:\ and E:\. VHD files (D.vhd and E.vhd) that reside in C:\ are mounted as drive D:\ and drive E:\. Drive D:\ is mounted to C:\MountD, and drive E:\ is mounted to C:\MountE.

If you archive C:\MountD and specify the Traverse Directory Junctions and Volume Mount Points option, and the Archive Mount Points as Part of the volume that they are mounted option is enabled or disabled, Arcserve Backup creates separate archive sessions for drive D:\ and C:\MountD.
