816307 Best practices for using dynamic disks on Windows Server 2003-based computers
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/816307
Dynamic volume
Any volume located on dynamic disks (p. 149), or more precisely, on a disk group (p. 149). Dynamic
volumes can span multiple disks. Dynamic volumes are usually configured depending on the desired
goal:
to increase the volume size (a spanned volume)
to reduce the access time (a striped volume)
to achieve fault tolerance by introducing redundancy (mirrored and RAID-5 volumes.)
F
Full backup
A self-sufficient backup (p. 147) containing all data chosen for backup. You do not need access to any
other backup to recover the data from a full backup.
I
Image
The same as Disk backup (p. 149).
L
Local backup plan
A backup plan created on a managed machine (p. 151) using direct management.
