Hello,
Could someone please tell me the purpose of "NetBackup Temp" hidden folder in windows 2008 R2 C drive. The folder is empty.
The customer suspects that NetBackup is creating temporary files in it.
Thank you.
Netbackup version on Master & Media servers is 7.7.1,the client is on 7.5.0.6

Where exactly is this hidden folder?
On the server or client?
If client - how many?
Directly under the root of C-drive or under Veritas or NetBackup folder?
I have this folder on my laptop (NBU Client installed):
C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup\Temp
Is this what you are referring to?

"C:\NetBackup Temp"
Seems to be used during backup of the particular server/workstation. I've never noticed any files in it, but the timestamp changes.

It might be related to PFI (persistent frozen image) backups on Windows.
