I guess you've ruled out an exclude list in your <installpath>/netbackup directory for this specific policy?
Here we have some default exclude lists we push out and I'm wondering if maybe you have one that is excluding this because it is an NFS mount somewhere else? ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 24, 2008 1:26 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] folders & files not backing up Is it a mountpoint or just a simple directory under /opt?

Yes directory. All operating systems but some more than others.. No it is not a link. That was the first thing I checked. Non of the directories under /opt are links... Just makes no sense why a slective backup of just the missing directory works. Even using same policy just modifying the file selection from ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES to /opt./(directory name) works..

Is the directory under /opt a link? ls -ld /opt/<skippped name> Netbackup does not follow links. My thinking this is an error in perception, rather than a technical problem. Your use of the word "folder" rather than "directory" for solaris makes me think you are perhaps a Windows person with Unix as your second language? ________________________________ From: Bobby R Windle [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 24, 2008 10:27 AM To: Donaldson, Mark - Broomfield, CO Cc: veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: RE: [Veritas-bu] folders & files not backing up Thanks for the response.. On the Solaris server it is skipping a folder under the /opt directory. There are 15 - 20 other folders under /opt that are backing up just fine. I changed permission on the folder that is getting skipped to 777 and it still ignores it. On one of the windows server I found ( but not fully researched) it skips everything under the root folders of local E:\ drive. It creates the folders but skips every thing under..... this could be something else.. The Solaris server makes no sense as I can do a selective backup of just that directory and it backs everything up. When I do ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES it has the problem. Bobby Windle | W.L.

"Local drives" means local - it's not crossing network mounts - check for that. exclusion lists in /usr/openv/netbackup, "exclude_list*" how are you doing a "selective backup"? ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bobby R Windle Sent: Monday, March 24, 2008 9:14 AM To: veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] folders & files not backing up I'm running Netbackup Enterprise 6.5.1 under Solaris 10. Recently I found a folder and every folder & file under it, is not backing up. I using ALL_LOCAL_ DRIVES for the selection lists. Also I just found a windows server that also is missing folders & files from backups. On the Solaris server, if I do a selective directory backup of the missing folder(s), it works. Any ideas. This has me worried... Bobby Windle | W.L. Gore & associates, Inc.
