We have a server that is backing up data using an entry in the dsm.opt file, DOMAIN \\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\shares1 <file:///\\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\shares1> . Does anyone know if it is possible to use journaling from the server backing these up? I haven't found anything but want to make sure others haven't either.
journaling uses the windows file change notification service (or whatever they call it), so in order to be able to journal the fs, you must be able to recheive those from the fileserver. That can only be done locally. so, you must run the client on the fileserver. I guess you're using cifs shares because the fileserver is a blackbox. If you're lucky you could use ndmp. If not, normal incrementals are the only way.
