[ADSM-L] Backup specific folder only
2011-07-20 00:59:41
Thanks everyone .. I will go with Andy's suggestion of using a separate
schedule to target a specific folder for backup.
Although Gary's suggestion would also solve my problem ,it comes with a lot of
administrative overheard since i would have to use many exclude.dir options
for each specific server and also if an user did add any new folder in future
i would end up backing up the folder structure.
Paul, we do a lot of folder specific backups on many of the servers(
file,oracle,application,EDMS servers).Many of these servers do have folder/sub
folder branches of over 10,000+ .So if i can be very specific in what i
backup i can reduce TSM DB growth to a certain extent.
Also,we are not particular about backing up the OS,system drive on some servers
as these servers have redundant server units and even if we lost a server
somewhere , the App services wouldn't be affected and we can rebuild the server
from scratch .Its been over 5 yrs and we have never faced the situation of a
server rebuild due to OS file corruption or user accidentally deleting the
file.Hence we stick with the plan of skipping OS backup for certain non
critical servers .
