Hi Guys,
I have a restore a 43 Mb file from my virtual machine and I am using BE 2012.. now from what I have read first the restore will stage the entire VM!!? This VM has 4 drives and the total size exceeds 1Tb but the drive I am restoring this file from is about 800 Gb out of which 600 Gb is used.. now on my backupexec server I dont have enough space on any of the drives to stage such a large VM...
I tried changing the staging area path under backupexec setting to a path on my NDMP storage but looks like it doesnt take it.. what i did was I mapped a drive by the name of Z and then under BE setting I changed to staging area path to Z:\temp which is my NDMP storage (Netapp) but still I could see the staging data goes to C:\Temp
Then I tried changing the staging area to D:\Temp a drive on the same BE server but still it goes to C:\Temp......
