Alexander, How about using the include exclude list on the Linux client to specify a different management class for the filespec in which the OSX clients have their filespaces mounted?
e.g. include /mnt/macclientmount/.../* MAC_MGMTCLASS Where MAC_MGMTCLASS as defined on the server might have the policy that you wish for your Mac files.

TSM 5.1 on Windows 2K server with Overland Neo 4100 LTO2. Windows, unix, mac clients. We nfs mount OS X workspaces onto our Linux fileserver, and back them up from there. We do that because, frankly, the TSM OS X scheduler is terrible. And since there is no command line for the TSM OS X client, we can't run the scheduler on OS X with cron. (what is IBM thinking?) Anyway, we now want different policies for the OS X nfs mounts and the other filesystems on the linux client. But I don't see any way of getting this done in TSM, it just wasn't designed that way. But is there any backdoor way to accomplish that? I just need a way to have different filespaces on a single client belong to different policies? Or is there any version of the OS X TSM client that actually can run via command line?
