Exclusions for Backup software
Created: 26 Feb 2013 | 6 comments
Hello,
we run the current version of SEP on our servers and admins are complaining these messages:
The following lines have triggered an ERRORLEVEL:
Logfile line no. 0067: ANS4251W System Writer file '\\server_xyz\c$\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Symantec Shared\EENGINE\eraserutilrebootdrv.sys': not found.
The backup guys asked me to create a dummy file. But the file is existing. Is there an issue by using the path like above?
Does it make sense to exclude a lot of SEP Files e.g. signatures, engine, ....
Regards,
Christoph

Hi,
regarding SEP12 will it be O.K. to exclude these files from backup?
C:\ProgramData\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection\CurrentVersion\Data\Definitions\VirusDefs
From my point of view the client will be able to download new signatures after a restore.
Excluding c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Symantec Shared\EENGINE\ does not help in this case.
But I do not know why...
Regards,
Christoph
Yes, once restored client will downlaod defs and keep it inside virus defs folder
