File copy for file server

Post by GoodFeel »

Hello,

I configured a File Copy job for a Windows file server.

The job launch fine but Veeam backups only the first folder of my source. All children folders and files aren't backuped. But the job ends with no error. But when I check th backup, I have only one directory (the first of the tree).

How can I backup all my datas with File Copy correctly ?

Thank you for your help.

Hi, GoodFeel.
File Copy Job was not meant for backups - it does not backup locked files, and it does not preserve ACLs on Folder level, for example.
It is best to use Veeam Agent for Windows and it's File-level Backup for it.
/Cheers!
