Guys, Is the issue what you want to back up from the local node vs. the clustered volumes?. The reason I ask is the domain all-local nds: statement does work as long as the colon is included. At least it works on a standalone box, I need to try an NDS backup on a clustered node.
What I'm still wrestling with is how to point to a separate optfile on a cluster volume. I keep getting invalid option optfile vol:\folder\file msg. I'd like to hear how you have thing set up for your clustergroup.
