Windows-Related Configuration Notes

General information pertaining to the configuration of the Windows client agent includes:

Restoring System State—The System State supports the Restore to Original Location option.
Note: The System State also supports restoring to an alternate location, but it will not recreate an operational system since the files are placed in default directories created by the agent at the time of restore.
Shares Support—When the use agent option is selected, the client agent backs up shares selected from the Preferred Shares/Machines object in the Backup Manager by converting the share name to the real path.
Note: On Windows platforms, the client agent does not restore shares or support shares as a destination except for administrative shares.
Restoration of the System Hive—The KeysNotToRestore feature is designed to protect sensitive system registry keys during a regular restore of the client agent system hive. However, this feature is unavailable when you use the Client Agent Registry session to restore individual system keys.
