I would like to get some idea of what features of the Windows client do you install, by default, when doing a brand-new client install. Folks here are just starting to realize the benefits of using the Journaling feature (yeah, I know, it is not a new feature - I have been trying to get folks t

Question 1: Journaling, but not OFS as standard Question 2: a) I dont keep the journal database on a reboot or service shutdown, and since the Windows machines generally dont have an uptime of +1 year, each time the machines are rebooted, we get a normal incremental for free. Never seen any pro

I am always installing the both because of many advantages from journaling and using VSS during backups. TSM Client creates VSS snapshots and backs up only changed files. In my opinion, backup time is significantly smaller starting from 1 files and extremely smaller after 10 files per se

Thanks, Andy. Every time I have someone come to me with VSS backup failures, I point them to the MS document for VSS fixes/patches.  So far it has always fixed their problem. -"ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" wrote: - To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU From: Andrew Raibeck Sent by: "ADSM: Dist Stor Ma
