Who are you logged in as when you run the backup? What do you see when
you run
dsmc i /var/* -subdir=yes -pick

(I ask this because I had the same problem with a Linux client, until I
realized that I wasn't logged on as root, which is the ID you have to
use to get all of /var backed up.)

Re: /VAR skipped during incremental

2003-01-13 Thread Large, Matthew
I'm sure /var is one of the directories TSM excludes by default (as is
/tmp), and always has been.
You will probably need to use an include/exclude list to include it in your
backup.

Although I could be wrong..

Hi *SM-ers!
I have got one TSM client (4.2.1.0) which skips /VAR during an incremental.
dsmc i /var works fine, there are no errors in the dsmerror.log.
Does anybody know what could be the cause of this?
Thanks in advance!
Kindest regards,

Hi Richard!
Forgot about the domain statement... :-(
According to our standards they shouldn't use the domain statement, but they
did. They removed it from the dsm.opt: problem solved.
Thank you very much

Hi, Eric -

I presume that 'dsmc show opt' does show /var in the Domain,
'dsmc show inclexcl' does not show client or server excluding it,
and the scheduler start time is after the last options change?

I very vaguely recall something like this maybe 3 years ago, but
can't put my finger on it...and in any case should have been an
ancient client problem.

  Richard

You probably have already thought of this,
but just to be sure: You haven't specified
a domain in your dsm.sys ?

Kind regards,

Re: /VAR skipped during incremental

2003-01-13 Thread Cook, Dwight E
Are you sure it skips /var ?
Could it be that /var is just a subdirectory under the filesystem / ?
(and you don't see "~...processing file system /var...~" ? )
I'd also double check the include/exclude list specified in the dsm.sys file
for the tsm server being used.
I'd also check the restart data of the scheduler against the last time the
dsm.sys file or the include/exclude list file was changed... if either of
those files are newer than the last start time of the scheduler, I'd bounce
the scheduler and see what happens.
Not that anyone would ever do this BUT someone might set an include/exclude
list to
exclude /.../*
bounce the scheduler
set the include/exclude list back to normal (to make things ~look~ OK).
(sigh...)
WOW ! gives me an idea...
a daily job that reports to me any clients that have save dates for
those files which are newer than the last bounce date of the scheduler
task...

Dwight
