If I understood you correctly, to achieve your requirements,
you have to start 1 save cmd per file you want to backup.
Doing so, Saveset name will be the file name with its full path.
So, just save -c client -b pool [-w browse pol] [-e/-y ret pol]
... [-l level] /usr/mydir/myfile.txt
Saving different files a time will be done in a common SSID,
with a common path (per design)

Objet : [Networker] How to save multiple paths?
How can I run the save command and tell it to save multiple paths and
have NetWorker list the full paths separately in the save set recover
window or mminfo command?
Instead, NetWorker seems to insist on recording only the part of the
path that is common to all the paths. I tried this command on the client:
save -s server -b pool -l level /home/dir/file1.txt /home/dir/file2.txt
When I check save set recover, I only see /home/dir/ listed, not each
path. I tried listing them in an input file and then re-ran it with '-I'
option, but that does the same thing. Seems that as soon as 2 or more
paths are listed, NetWorker insists on wrapping it all together under
the parent directory (in this case /home/dir/) or whatever is common to
all of them. I tried this, too:
save -s server -B -n -b pool -l level -I /tmp/input_file
It indicates that, again, the pathname will be /home/dir/
It works if I use the GUI. Why not on the command line? Am I going to
have to write a script that forks multiple instances of itself to save
each path? Here's what I'm trying to accomplish. I wanna be able to
login to the client, cd to the directory, and run a script that will
determine which files have not been backed up and then it will back them
up, say 4 at a time (client parallelism) so that each path is listed
separately when I look at mminfo or saveset recover. Otherwise, it's
hard to keep track of what was backed up when if just wraps all the
files up into one saveset name. These are special gzipped database dump
files that are created a few times a month, and I need to be able to
identify them separately by name. I would prefer not to have NetWorker
back up each one, one at a time, since that takes longer, and it's more
shoe shining on the drives, but other than launching multiple saves,
that seems to be the only way?
Any help would be appreciated.
George
