Backup Exec 2014: how to optimize too big Sysem State incremental backup

Hi everyone,

It is not the first time this issue is being discussed on Connect: the size of incremental backup for Windows Server 2008 is too big. As I can see this happens because of Windows Server system state architecture - it is big thing by design.

And here's the problem (or call it challenge): how to optimize this? How to make (smart) backup of Windows Server without using too much storage space? And another one - how to remediate expired backup?
