Comments
Refers to all volumes on machines running
Windows, and all mounted volumes on
machines running Linux.
The system volume contains the hardware-
specific files that are needed to start
Windows, such as Ntldr, Boot.ini, and
Ntdetect.com.
There is only one system volume even if
multiple Windows operating systems are
installed on the computer.
For more details, see "Note on Windows
machines" below.
Refers to the registered machine's boot
volume.
The boot volume contains the Windows
folder and the supporting files for the
Windows operating system (typically
located in the Windows\System32 folder).
It may or may not be the same as the
system volume.
If multiple operating systems are installed
on the computer, this is the boot volume of
the operating system in which the agent is
working.
For more details, see "Note on Windows
machines" below.
