Backup to disc file size

Hi,

 I'm using BE 2016 and I'm unable to find where/how to change the file size for Exchange backups.

I currently have a 1.2TB edb file on my backup disc as seen in attached file.

Shouldn't these be .bkf files?

I bleive this is part of the GRT feature of Backup Exec. Not everything is backed up to bkf. VMware, for example, will be in the form of .vmdk

When you do a non-GRT backup, the backup set would be a .bkf file.  When you do a GRT backup, you end up with an IMG folder which is what you have.  The contents of the IMG folder is need for BE to mount so that the individual items can be extracted and restored.
