Charles Anderson posted an example on the list a while back and it worked for me - use VIRTUALMOUNTPOINT for each ext3 filesystem. ext3 isn't supported in TSM yet.
For your system, in dsm.sys: VIRTUALMOUNTPOINT "/" VIRTUALMOUNTPOINT "/boot" VIRTUALMOUNTPOINT "/boot2" VIRTUALMOUNTPOINT "/root2" Bill Smoldt STORServer, Inc. -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Steve Roder Sent: Tuesday, January 08, 2002 12:19 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: linux, ext3, and V4.2 Hi All, We are recently beginning to backup some Linux boxes, and have run into the limitation whereby the EXT3 filesystems are not supported by TSM V4.2. The doc claims that they can be backed up in "compatibility mode", but it does not explain how to accomplish this. Does anyone here know how to backup these filesystems? Here is what they look like in /etc/fstab: LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1 LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 LABEL=/boot2 /boot2 ext3 defaults 1 2 LABEL=/root2 /root2 ext3 defaults 1 2 And of course, the followup question to Tivoli, if they are listening, is if support for ext3 is planned? For now, it would be nice to enable backups of these filesystems in this so called "compatibility mode".
