davehahn Posted February 9, 2016 Report Share Posted February 9, 2016 How would I do the steps outlined in this KB (http://www.retrospect.com/en/support/kb/windows-server-2012-data-deduplication) on my Mac server running retrospect 11? I am running into this exact problem, trying to backup the C:\ of a Windows 2012 R2 server that has data deduplication on it's D:\ - but the 'secret preferences' on the mac version of Retrospect don't have the "Open File Backup" or "Excluded Writer List" - or I'm just missing it. I am able to backup the volume that has deduplication just fine - but the boot volume (as described in the KB) is the one that retrospect generates a huge snapshot. Can somebody explain to me how I can fix this?

twickland Posted February 9, 2016 Report Share Posted February 9, 2016 Have you purchased and installed the Windows Open File Backup add-on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davehahn Posted February 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2016 Nope. Didn't realize the KB was referring to an add-on. That's probably my issue then. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
