Hi Marianne,
Global drive snapshot
The property specifies that the snapshot is of a global drive. All the volumes that require snapshots for the backup job (or stream group for multi-streamed backups) are taken at one time.
For example, assume that drives C and D are to be backed up.
In this situation, NetBackup takes a snapshot of C and D. Then NetBackup backs up Cand backs up D.
NetBackup then discards the C and D snapshots.
This property maintains file consistency between files in different volumes. The backup uses the same snapshot that is taken at a point in time for all volumes in the backup.
Note:
The Individual drive snapshot and Global drive snapshot properties only apply to non multi-streamed backups that use Windows Open File Backup. All multi-streamed backup jobs share the same volumes snapshots for the volumes in the multi-streamed policy. The volume snapshots are taken in a global fashion.
Where this snapshot is crated in case of global drive?I mean on which drive?
And What that note means at the end?it is only for multiplexing?
