When Arcserve Backup backs up Arcserve D2D backup sessions, the backup process does not generate catalog files for the D2D sessions. The process of generating catalog files is a time consuming task that can increase the time that is required to back up the D2D backup sessions (backup window). To help reduce the backup window, (by default) Arcserve Backup does not generate catalog files.
Note: The File System Catalog Generation process is optional and disabled by default on Arcserve D2D r16.5 and later releases.
Arcserve Backup requires catalog files to recover D2D backup sessions at file level, folder level, and application level granularity. When you need to recover D2D backup sessions at file level, folder level, and application level granularity, you can configure Arcserve Backup to generate the catalog files for the D2D backup sessions during the backup operation.
The following steps describe how to configure Arcserve Backup to generate and to not generate catalog files during backup operations.
Follow these steps:
Important! Log in to the D2D server when you back up the node using the D2D Servers object in the Backup Manager Source tree. Similarly, log in to the D2D proxy server when you back up the node using the D2D Proxy Servers object in the Backup Manager Source tree.
Note: Using the D2D proxy server to perform a backup on a D2D server, supports generating catalog files, only if the D2D server is available. If the D2D server is not available, then generating the catalog file fails.
