Best way to backup UNC path

[redmerlin]

I need to backup a couple of shares on a file server that are accessable via UNC paths (\\servername\share) on a different system running TSM. And i'm nost sure what is the best way to do this?

Is it possilbe to use a filespaces and put an Include.Fs statement in the dsm.opt file like this:

"Include.Fs \\filer1\data\Common MEMORYEFFICIENTBACKUP=NO"

i think you can add the unc path to your DOMAIN option in the dsm.opt file!

hi redmerlin,
you can add it to the *.opt file.
But the tsm client which do the job must have the rights to do that.

Is this the correct format?

Include.Fs \\filer1\data\Common MEMORYEFFICIENTBACKUP=NO

Include.Fs \\filer1\data\Common MEMORYEFFICIENTBACKUP=NO

yes, it should, but you don't need "MEMORYEFFICIENTBACKUP=NO" - because its the default value for include.fs

this i have done for mgmt
include "E:\xxx" 6MONATE
include "\\xxx2\tausch" 6MONATE
include "\\xxx2\daten" 6MONATE
include "\\xxx2\Userdirs" 6MONATE
include "\\xxx2\install\Exmerge" 1MONAT

and this for backup:
DOMAIN E:
DOMAIN \\xxx2\tausch
DOMAIN \\xxx2\daten
DOMAIN \\xxx2\Userdirs
DOMAIN \\xxx2\install

Thanks for your help on this i'm getting a little farther but now i'm seeing an 'ANS1071E Invalid domain name error' when trying to do a backup.

Here's the lines from my dsm.opt file

DOMAIN ALL-LOCAL
DOMAIN \\filer1\data\Common\chilsejw
include "\\filer1\data\Common\chilsejw" STANDARD

delete
DOMAIN \\filer1\data\Common\chilsejw
the it should work for you

The domain statement should only have the share name.

i.e. \\filer\sharename

and not the whole directory path.
