About the Enterprise Vault Agent and the backup components
The NetBackup Enterprise Vault agent determines the configuration of an Enterprise Vault environment when an Enterprise Vault backup is run. This information is provided to the NetBackup master server to instantiate the appropriate NetBackup components on the clients for backup.
The Enterprise Vault agent enables you to back up and restore the following Enterprise Vault components:
Enterprise Vault directory database
Enterprise Vault monitoring database
Enterprise Vault FSA Reporting database
Enterprise Vault auditing database
Enterprise Vault index location
For this release, NetBackup does not support any Enterprise Vault index locations that are based on a mapped drive. If any index location in an Enterprise Vault site is based on a mapped drive then there should not be any backup selection that uses the EV_INDEX_LOCATION=EV Site Name directive.
Enterprise Vault archives (such as the open, closed, and ready partitions)
For this release, NetBackup does not support any Enterprise Vault partitions that are based on a mapped drive. That applies to open, closed, and ready partition components.
If an open partition is based on a mapped drive then there should not be any backup selection that uses the EV_OPEN_PARTITION=Vault Store Name (which contains that open partition) directive.
If a closed partition is based on a mapped drive then there should not be any backup selection that uses the EV_CLOSED_PARTITION=VaultStoreName (which contains that closed partition) directive.
If a ready partition is based on a mapped drive then there should not be any backup selection that uses the EV_READY_PARTITION=VaultStoreName (which contains that ready partition) directive.
