Disabling the cataloging for duplications of Exchange backups that use Granular Recovery Technology (GRT)
Note:
This option does not apply to duplicating a VMware backup that protects Exchange. You cannot use the Administration Console to duplicate that kind of backup. You must use the command-line option bpduplicate.
Duplication of a backup that uses Granular Recovery Technology (GRT) takes extra time. NetBackup requires this extra time to catalog the granular Exchange information. You can choose not to catalog the granular information so that the duplication is performed more quickly. However, then users are not able to browse for individual items on the image that was duplicated if the disk copy expires.
During the duplication process, NetBackup writes log entries periodically to show the progress of the job.
