hi all,
I need an advise on windows open file backup; here's my scenario
I did not enable windows open file backup in Master server properties (client attributes); neither had i started VSS services in windows for all 3 servers (master, media and client)
so I proceed the normal process, create a DSU and policy; before i start the backup, I created a file called 1.txt and type "before 1st backup" and save the file. then I reopen the file and continue typing the sentence "this is for windows open file backup" but did not save it as I just leave it opened on the desktop
and I started the backup, to my surprise the backup goes successfully and it backed up the text "before 1st backup". attached below is the process log

6/16/2013 6:02:17 PM - end writing; write time: 00:00:43
the requested operation was successfully completed(0)
I remember on my previous attempt, I notice the backup done with partially successfully, in this case, it did not
I am running netbackup 7.0 on all my servers
to confirm vss is not enabled, here's my vss status in client
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>vssadmin list shadows
vssadmin 1.1 - Volume Shadow Copy Service administrative command-line tool
