HP BB118BV - StorageWorks Data Protector Express Package User's Manual & Technical Reference page 91

You must use the Data Protector Express Administrator, rather than the Data Protector Express service,
to back up mapped drives because mapped drives in Windows are related to a specific user. That is,
different users can have the same drive letter mapped differently. The Data Protector Express service must
be stopped for the backup of files on mapped drives to work properly.
NOTE:
The Data Protector Express service must be stopped to allow the proper backup of mapped drives. The
service cannot be running when you select mapped drives for backup because of the method Microsoft
uses to authenticate mapped drive access. If the Data Protector Express service is not stopped when you
select mapped drives for backup, the service will fail to authenticate to the selected mapped drives and they
will not be backed up. Because the Data Protector Express service must be stopped, you need to run Data
Protector Express in application mode (i.e., the Data Protector Express Administrator must be open when
the backup job is scheduled to occur) or the backup job will not run as scheduled.
To enable or disable mapped drives
1.
Open the Catalog view from the Administration desk bar.
2.
In the main object detail area, select Network.
3.
Select the machine whose mapped drives are being configured.
4.
Select System Drivers.
5.
Locate and select File System Stream and display its properties.
6.
Select the Configuration page.
7.
Enter a list of mapped drive letters, for example JKLMQRSZX.
You can enable or disable as many drives as you need. The drive letter list does not need to be in
alphabetical order and is case insensitive.
Device/Media
The Device/Media page of a backup job's properties lets you select the devices and media that will be
used as the destination of the backup. You can view the available devices by Device view or by Network
view by selecting the appropriate tab.
You can add more devices and media to be used during jobs, or you can remove them. By default, Data
Protector Express uses any available device or media on the network.
