Backing up a Windows Mount Point using Flashbackup-Windows

Hi, I'm wondering about the following: \\.\E:\mounted_volume\ Does mounted_volume refer to the volume name as it appears in Disk Management or does it refer to the folder name? Thanks, Rudi...

    mountpoint is the name of folder to which you have the volume mapped to.

     

    for example under disk managment you say i want 'home' on the c: drive mapped to a different volume.

     

    SO: c:\home is the pointpoint 

     

    If you want to backup `home` as a raw device, you have to put under the backup selection \\.\c:\home
