Hello Markus,

yes it is from shell. The first one only works with "--exact-match". I
thought that the option of amfetchdump would work this way, too.
If I put the second one in quotes nothing changes.

Dennis


amadmin --exact-match mirror find SERVER //esx-87/C$
=> works
amfetchdump --exact-match -Ca -O /storage mirror SERVER //esx-87/C$
20141026
=> ERROR: No matching dumps found


I’m guessing the difference may be that amadmin is a binary executable and
amfetchdump a perl script? Are you running both commands in a shell
context? If so, then I’m surprised the first one doesn’t balk at the
unescaped dollar sign. Could you solve the problem by putting all your
arguments in single quotes? The first command works for me if I put the
disk name in quotes, and though I have no entries with dollar signs, I do
have a few with spaces and the single quote works there.
