How does CoreVault handle open files?
Open files are an issue in most backup environments. If a file is open exclusively on a workstation, it is the server’s responsibility to stop anyone else, including a backup package, accessing that file. To help counteract these issues CoreVault has a range of options that attempt to handle open files. These options, combined with use of the Pre and Post commands, should enable the backup of almost any file. In environments where available, the use of the Volume Shadow Copy (VSS) service allows CoreVault to access files that are open during the backup.
