Re: [Networker] Legato directive issues

Hi,
Do you really need to have a directive for nsr folder ?
Also, why do you allow SQL folders to be all over the server ?
Does the directive work if you remove the first line ? ( Just have Skip 
Directive)
Thanks

Legato directive issues






Hi

We are trying to omit sql files with a *.mdf *.ldf extention, the 
directive is set up like this but we are getting what looks like errors in 
our backup reports, has anyone seen this before, can anyone offer any help 
on how to get round this. The environment is Legato v7.4.2 on a linux 
platform, backing up linux, unix and wintel, the errors are with the 
wintel directive.

error = * norsql02.corp.acxiom.net:E:\ save: bad dir spec, line 0 of 
C:\Program Files\Legato\nsr\tmp\sd00001e

directive is
<<”C:\Program Files\Legato\nsr\tmp\*”>>
     allow
<<"C:\SQL_Data">>
   skip:*.mdf
   skip:*.ldf
<<"D:\SQL_Data">>
      skip:*.mdf
   skip:*.ldf
<<"E:\SQL_Data">>
      skip:*.mdf
      skip:*.ldf
<<"F:\SQL_Data">>
     skip:*.mdf
   skip:*.ldf
<<"G:\SQL_Data">>
      skip:*.mdf
      skip:*.ldf

I have added the skip command to all drives, not sure is this is good 
practice?
any help would be greatly appreciated

Steve
