System State data contains most elements of a system's configuration, but it might not include all of the information that you require to recover your system from a failure. Therefore, it is recommended that you back up all boot and system volumes, including the System State, when you back up your system.
From our Administrator guide, page 317: http://ftp.support.veritas.com/pub/support/products/Backup_Exec_for_WindowsNT/288005.pdf
System State Lists a collection of system-specific data that is backed up whenever the
computer name node is selected. Symantec recommends that you back up
System State. However, you can clear the check box next to System State if
you do not want to back it up with the resources on the server. You cannot
select or expand the System State resources individually. They are backed
up only as a collection, never individually.
You can only perform a full backup on System State. However, if you select
other items at the same time, you can perform other backup methods on
those items. You can back up System State remotely on other computers if
Backup Exec Remote Agent is installed on the remote computer. For more
information about System State, refer to your Microsoft Windows 2000 or
Windows Server 2003 documentation.
So, in a nutshell, there is no "hard documentation" to tell you that what specific volume data is not backed up with the System State. There is however, hard documentation advising to backup all boot and data volumes along with the System State.
