Re: Problems backing up Linux client - missed filesystem
Have you checked your dsmsched.log on the client for errors? Have you checked your tsm server actlog for the same time period for informative messages? -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of Minns, Farren - Chichester Sent: Monday, December 12, 2011 12:01 PM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] Problems backing up Linux client - missed filesystem OK, thanks for the advice.

Re: Problems backing up Linux client - missed filesystem
Hi Yes, and not actually seeing errors. The backup runs fine, but only check the /boot filesystem.

Re: Problems backing up Linux client - missed filesystem
If your scheduler is not running under CAD, any changes made to dsm.sys and dsm.opt will not be known to that scheduler process until it is restarted. You should also review the output of 'dsmc q opt' and 'dsmc q inclexcl' for containing what you actually want, as compiled specifications. An option of virtualmountpoint / seems pointless.
