Global drive snapshot : are created in C: drive.
NBU GUI : master server:client attributes:for windows client if GLOBAL DRIVE snapshot option selected and C: drive has less space backup will fail for all drives.
if individual drive snapshot is selected it will create cache file or temp file or volume shadow copy file in D: , E: ,F: etc.
vrts.frozenimage will always be at path C:\program files\veritas\netbackup\temp\
NBU GUI logs wil show : GLOBALROOT\DEVICE\HARDDISKvolumeshadowcopy\option. C:\program files\veritas\netbackup\temp\vrts.frozen image.1462..
vrts.frozen image.<number> will remain same for all individual backup job, if mutistreaming is ON. but cache file will be created in individual drive.
always use individual drive snapshot option. make sure to have C: \ space ten percent empty
I just want to know :
1. what this cache files mean?Active open files at the time of backup on that volume?
2. shadow copy space is only for these active cache file?(open files at the time of backup)
Please provide these solution so that I can mark this as solution.
