can repaired copying hidden folder backup or need restore whole drive from backup , previous version still work properly?
from disaster recovery point down side this?
hi sgtwtf22,
for deduplication data, is compressed , placed chunk store located in hidden folder @ root of volume called system volume information, or “svi folder”. normal file replaced small reparse point, has pointer map of data streams , chunks required “rehydrate” file , serve when requested.
for repair function, a weekly scrubbing job inspects event log logged corruptions , fixes data chunks alternate copies if exist. there optional deep scrub job available walk through entire data set, looking corruptions , tries fix them
please refer blog more details deduplication
best regards,
mary
