PDVFS logs filling system drive
Hi everyone, We are using Backup Exec 20.6 with deduplication option. Since update from Backup Exec 16 to 20.6 the log files in C:\Program Files\Veritas\Backup Exec\Logs\PDVFS are filling our sys...
Please check the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Symantec\PureDisk\PDVFS and check the value of DWORD called DebugLevel. If it is set to anything other than 0, it will continue logging the details into PDVFS logs and fill the drive space. You can change the value to 0 which shall stop creating PDVFS log files and then you can also delete all old PDVFS log files under the path C:\Program Files\Symantec\Backup Exec\Logs\PDVFS\ to clear the space.

1. Check that debugging is disabled everywhere
2. To remove already created logs; stop Backup Exec services, delete the files, and restart services.
