Hi all, Wehave some problems andwe need to restore somebackups whichwere expired and we don't have the backup ids but Iamsure that these backups were not overwritten on tapes. I'd like to know it possible and if so how to do it. our netbackup version in 5.1 enterprise server running on hpux master server.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Exclude lists
Hi All, Thank you all for your help. I tried to remove the asterisk and the backup succeeded. Thank you Katherine, Mark, Steve, Karim bob and sorry I didn't mention that our master server client on the same machine.

Now that Symantec has screwed up the search site, I can't find the technote, nor can I find this in SAG I, but I believe that A. /dir/* will generate the list of dir's contents, then exclude them B. /dir will exclude that directory without enumerating its contents In A, you cause the situation you're trying to avoid. In B, I don't believe anything below dir will be examined. (As a minor point, the dir node itself would be backed up in A but not in B.) If anyone can point to the technote or doc page, I'd appreciate it. ___ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu
[Veritas-bu] Exclude lists
Hello,I have a problem that we have a policy for a filesystem which contains alarge number of files with a differential backup and it fails with status41 (network connection timed out) I tried first to increase the CLIENT_READ_TIMEOUTto 1800 and it worked for some time then failed again with the same error.I got a list of directories (which contain the largest number of files) toexclude from the backup with exclude lists. I created the file exclude_list.POLICY-NAMEin the path /usr/openv/netbackup including these directories like:/dir1/*/dir2/*and I got the same error again. I think the exclude list didn't work andI am asking for any way to trace or monitor its work or any other suggestedsolution for my problem.our netbackup version is netbackup enterprise server 5.1 and our master client is HP-UX 11.11.Thanks,Mohamed Wahdan ***IMPORTANTConfidentiality: This e-mail communication and any attachments thereto contain information which is confidential and are intended only for the use of the individuals or entities named above.
