Suggestion regarding Remote Deploy and partition backups

For remote deploy: Under “What to Backup” you have “Backup only system required partitions” and “Backup all partitions”. The problem that I am running into is that selecting “Backup only system required partitions” is great, but what if there is a separate partition on the computer used as a data dump? Since that is not a system required partition it does not get backed up. (example: OS on C drive, data on D drive)

Ok, great, I’ll just use “Backup all partitions..” well, that seems to backup external hard drives as well (which are where my local backups go to). Obviously, I don’t need my external hard drives being backed up to the cloud because MSP360 is already running a local backup to them.

So in short, I was wondering if there was a way for you guys to add something like “Backup all internal hard drives” or “Backup all partitions except external” or something like that.

[reply=“Mike S;d2375”] If you’re backing up multiple computers and using remote deploy, then set up a system required partitions in the deployment and then create a separate image plan for the volume specific for that computer by editing plans for that endpoint.

But will ask about the External Hard Drive issue with the team.
