Backup Exec 2012 no longer has follow symbolic links option
I've recently migrated my jobs from BE 2010 to BE 2012.
All went fine until recently, when I've changed the different Linux backup jobs.
I'm guessing that -seen 'follow symbolic links' is no longer an option in BE 2012- it took the 2010 settings and migrated everything correctly. But when I've changed the job BE stored it in a 2012 format, stripping the old config.
Is there a way to reactivate this, currently I'm only backing up a file instead of all the directories referenced by the symbolic link ?
If contacted Symantec several times, spent some time on the phone with a technician, but they did not come up with a solution.
best regards
