On one of my AIX boxes I have the below filesystem, which you can see with the
df command


/dev/dbrlv1      8781824   3819800   57%      329     1% /dbr/appl
/dev/dbjlva1     4096000    298928   93%      142     1% /prod/dbms/emlogs
/dev/dbjlva3     2449408    284400   89%     5483     2% /ist/dbms/sw
/dev/dbjlva2     2048000   1261840   39%     2660     2% /prod/appl/code
/dev/devlv1      4096000    656672   84%    24539     5% /dev/appl



When I go to run the TSM backup and it hits this filesystem (I have all-local
specified in dsm.opt and no inclexcl statements) I get this.

tsm> i /dev/appl/ -verbose
Node Name: SPNODE1

Incremental backup of volume '/dev/appl/'
ANS1228E Sending of object '/dev/appl/*' failed
ANS1063E Invalid path specification


Any thoughts?
