Backup exec filesystem backup skips DB , index files ?

[Nayabsk]

When a server has BE client and BE SQL agent installed, will the normal filesystem backup skip the related SQL dbf & index files by default?

[pkh · Accepted solution]

Yes.  These are automatically excluded by AFE (Automatic File Exclusion).

Have a look @ this KB - https://support.symantec.com/en_US/article.HOWTO24057.html

This applies whether SQL Agent is used or not.
