Backup Completed with Exceptions -- SharePoint Server Farm Components
On an SBS 2011 machine, we have created both a "Server Farm" backup to backup the SharePoint Resources and another backup to backup everything else.
Despite having completely unselected "Microsoft SharePoint Resources" from the second backup, we are receiving exceptions regarding various SharePoint components. The specific error logs follow:
Backup- \\WIN2K11.mydomain.local\C:V-79-57344-33925 - Error: SharePoint_AdminContent_b7d1f15d-5269-488c-8c2d-0a4c685b9137.mdf is a component of a SharePoint server farm.

I have performed some quick searches and it looks like other users are having similar issues. But, I have seen no resolutions. Can anyone provide some insight into what needs to be changed to avoid these exceptions?
Thanks,
Vincent
For the second backup job, try putting in an exclusion for the Data folder...the path is something similar to \Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL$SharePoint\Data
