System state backups are automatically enabled for the default subclient, which backs up the system state data along with file system data during a Full backup. However, you can also create a separate subclient to back up the system state if you do not want to modify the content of the default subclient.
Before You Begin
-
For 1-Touch recovery operations, we recommend that you do not create a separate subclient to back up only the system state as restoring only the system state of the client computer may cause inconsistencies. To restore the system state, include the system volume and the system state as your subclient content.
-
You cannot enable system state or 1-Touch backups for additional subclients without disabling the same for the default subclient.
-
You cannot enable block-level backups and 1-Touch recovery simultaneously for the same Linux sublcient.
-
For 1-Touch backups, we recommend that the subclient backup content be defined as All. To exclude contents, use global or subclient filters.
