Hello,
You can make a script that first change the policy file selection using bpplinclude command and then run the policy. stefanos From: veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu [mailto:veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu] On Behalf Of Sanders, Nate Sent: Tuesday, November 01, 2011 8:57 PM To: Sanders, Nate; veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] NDMP backups Would it be possible to make the policy read the Backup Selections from a file? We could easily automate the creation of this file into chunks of streams for the existing folders. My concern with a manual list is that new folders will be created and missed. From: veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu [mailto:veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu] On Behalf Of Sanders, Nate (DS) Sent: Tuesday, November 01, 2011 1:25 PM To: veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: [Veritas-bu] NDMP backups So, NDMP doesn't support wildcards, right? As stated in "NetBackup AdminGuide NDMP": The following backup selections capabilities are NOT supported for an NDMP policy: │ Wildcards in pathnames. For example, /home/* is an invalid entry. │ Individual file names. Only directory or volume names are allowed. │ Exclude list (because client software is not installed on the NDMP host). You can, however, exclude files by using the SET keyword. I have a large folder full of sub folders that need to be backed up. Ideally, I'd love to have multiple streams running in the job. I was hoping to split them out by the alphabet, as in A*, B*, C*, etc. NDMP won't let you do this. Anyone have any suggestions on how else to achieve this? We're trying to backup an Isilon via NDMP to a Data Domain via OST from the media server. -- Nate Sanders Sr. System Administrator Digital Motorworks, Inc (512) 692 - 1038 _____ This message and any attachments are intended only for the use of the addressee and may contain information that is privileged and confidential.
