I need to fix that posting:  NFS-mounted file systems are not considered
"local".  Coding simply ALL-LOCAL in dsm.opt (or letting it default)
and then doing 'dsmc q opt', it will report only your truly local file
systems.  In any case, you'll need to explicitly specify file systems to
get a particular order or inclusion.  Of course, NFS file systems are not
usually backed up from an NFS client, but sometimes there are extenuating
circumstances.

   I'll be allright,  Richard
