any idea what is in Windows\system32\wbem\Repository\FS ?

[srenshaw]

Hi,

Couls someone tell me what are those files ?

I run a nightly backup and it tell me that those files are always in use.

Should I remove those from the backup or ar they important files ?

The following is from the backup log:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\wbem\Repository\FS
INDEX.BTR : Bkp : 209 - Object is busy
MAPPING.VER : Bkp : 209 - Object is busy
MAPPING1.MAP : Bkp : 209 - Object is busy
MAPPING2.MAP : Bkp : 209 - Object is busy
OBJECTS.DATA : Bkp : 209 - Object is busy

And

C:\WINDOWS\system32\wbem\Repository\FS
INDEX.BTR : Bkp : 209 - Object is busy
INDEX.MAP : Bkp : 209 - Object is busy
MAPPING.VER : Bkp : 209 - Object is busy
MAPPING1.MAP : Bkp : 209 - Object is busy
MAPPING2.MAP : Bkp : 209 - Object is busy
OBJECTS.DATA : Bkp : 209 - Object is busy
OBJECTS.MAP : Bkp : 209 - Object is busy

Thanks

Simon

enable Volume Shadow Copy on your drive...

does your backup include system state, or is it just data backup?

It's a backup that include system state.

Shadow Copy are basically like a Ghost right ?

Still, that don't tell me what are those files ans if they are important.

shadow copy allows you to better backup files that are in use.

but no, I dont know what those files are for
