Valid on all Windows systems functioning as backup proxy systems.
Symptom
File and folder directories do not appear under the mount point when performing file level backups using VDDK.
Solution
VMware VDDK cannot map file and folder directories to a mount directory on a volume or drive letter. However, VDDK maps the mounted volume to a symbolic link device path using the signature that follows:
\.\vstor2-mntapi10-F0751CFD007E00000000000001000000\.
The above signature is a low-level device path that you can view in the Windows Object namespace. However, the namespace is not mapped to a volume drive letter on a mounted volume on the backup proxy system.
