[Veritas-bu] Strange hung job problem
Dave, Did a reboot fix the issue? If not, what fixed it? I have the same issue with one of my servers.

[Veritas-bu] Selection List Break Up
I'm trying to break up the backups of a certain large folder via selection list and I want to make sure I get everything. Client: Solaris 10 x86 running NBU 6.5.6 Master/Media: Windows 2003 running NBU 6.5.6 So far I've got: /home/[a-nA-N]* /home/[o-zO-Z]* /home/[0-9]* What about special files and folders that start with special characters? Is there a nice easy pattern I can tack onto this to pick up everything else? For some reason Mr. Google isn't being very helpful in this regard this morning, and Pg. 630 of the Windows Admin guide doesn't provide much detail either. Thanks, -Jonathan ___ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu
Re: [Veritas-bu] Selection List Break Up
The way that I have come up with that is to create a second catch all policy. In your case /home would be the backup selection list, in tandem with an exclude list of the three entries that you have specified. Interested in any reactions...

Re: [Veritas-bu] Selection List Break Up
I do the same thing: Create a policy with ALD and exclude everything you've created separate policies/file selections for.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Selection List Break Up
Can’t you just do /home/*? This will kick off a separate backp for every file and directory in /home… but you can limit the jobs per policy to 3, and that would only allow three active jobs at a time… Just a thought.

To restore full and incremental backups, you can restore all the backups in a single operation. Or you can restore the full backups and incremental backups individually. If you restore all the backups in a single operation, NetBackup performs a commit after the last incremental is restored. If you restore the backups individually, select the following options when you restore the last incremental
