Manually copy EV Vault Store files into USB HDD

Hi All,

In order to perform simple backup, I'm trying to perform Windows Explorer copy of the EV Vault Store partition content and also the indexer into USB Hard Drive, rather than using the long process of the backup software (which includes Pre and post backup script).

So what could be the consequences if I just copy the files into the USB drive without issuing the Pre and Post backup script ?

Last time my backup job runs without the Pre and Post backup script, it broke my file server, user can no lnoger retrieve the archived files.
