Hi Dan, it is not neccessary to add a special include for using the DIRMC option. just add the line
DIRMC DiskDirs to the dsm.opt, and only directories will be bound to this management-class. Mit freundlichen Gr��en / Best Regards Uwe Schreiber [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04.04.2004 08:07 Please respond to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc Subject Directory storage pools As per the TSM redbook at: http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/pdfs/sg245416.pdf It suggests use of DISKDIRS and OFFDIRS to store directory information to avoid restore-time directory reconstruction hits. Everything makes sense, including the need to explicitly bind all directories on a client to the DISKDIRS management class with DIRMC. The next question is... *how* do you select ONLY directories for this management class without selecting any files within them, in dsm.opt? (Server is 5.1.8.0 on AIX and clients are 5.1.5.14/15 on Windows, Linux, Solaris, and AIX.) I had also checked the TSM 5.1.5 UNIX client reference from: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/tividd/td/TSMC/GC32-0789-02/en_US/PDF/GC32-0789-02.pdf ....and read through everything referencing include, exclude, dirmc, but it's still not obvious to me how to select only directory data for use with DIRMC DISKDIRS. I see there's a dirsonly keyword, but how to use it within context of dsm.opt? include / -dirsonly -dirmc diskdirs ? -Dan
