NTFS Tracking Log

All versions of the LiveVault Online Backup and Recovery Service Agent automatically exclude from backup the Windows 2000/2003 NTFS tracking log file (tracking.log) from each NTFS volume. The file is located in the System Volume Information folder.

This Object ID tracking log file tracks linked objects, such as files, so that the links are not broken when the objects get moved.

In the tree view on the Files to Backup tab, you will see the icon for the automatically excluded file. Parent directories of the automatically excluded file are marked in MyLiveVault with one of the "partially excluded" icons, either (if a parent directory is selected), or (if a parent directory is not selected).
