Does this mean that any server attached to a SAN will do a FULL backup of the files on the SAN vice an incremental? Isn't this the API behind the TSM incremental forever philosophy?

The Microsoft Win32 api used to monitor file system changes does not support non-local file systems. It might be possible to write some sort of file system extension (filter) to implement this type of support but it would be a major development undertaking and would involve a considerable investment of time and resource which I'm not sure management would be willing to consider.

I would assume journaling would work at the drive letter (logical) level, meaning it would be clueless as to the underlying disk access method. To the O/S and software, it should just look like a drive/volume. Maybe I'm missing something more to the puzzle. But I would think it would work for you.

It's because the 4 million plus files are on a SAN attached disk and journaling does not support that, only local. What good is that????? Is there any good reason to use SAN disk these days anyway?
