When running a Job, you receive the following exception:
Exception -
Message: Your job monitors a Reparse Point for a folder junction, mount point, or another type of folder redirection. File changes in the folder may not be detected if the folder is redirected.

You can exclude the folder from processing by expanding Job, clicking on Rule and adding an exclusion in the "This rule applies to the following subfolders" field. For example, if the folder was Folder within the root path:
\ | -\Folder\

You can then configure another Job to process only folder by setting the following in the "This rule applies to the following subfolder" field in the Rule within the new Job:
\Folder\
This Job can be run under a Schedule. You will want to turn off Change Journal support so a scan is performed. This is done by clicking on the Job and then going to the Root Paths tab. Click on the path with the Reparse Point and click on Edit. Click on the Options tab and uncheck "Monitor folder for content changes." This will tell the Job to always do a full scan of that path.
You can also run the entire Job under a Schedule if you choose.
