Verify that system_state is not backed up with ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES before
putting manual backups of it in place or before deciding not to use this
directive.

I'm almost positive it does get backed up as part of ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES.

You could use standard as Type and use the ALL_LOCAL_DRIVE directive. This
will backup all filesystems. 
If you need to exclude anything, you can use exclude list on both systems.
The only drawback is that you wont backup the system state for windows.

But that can be backed up manually

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Windows or Linux?

I have a machine to backup that is sometimes booted with Windows and
sometimes booted with Linux.  The file systems are complely different and
each need to be backed up. 

My problem is that we don't want or otherwise need a second IP address for
the machine.

Can I (How do I) set this up so that NetBackup will make a Windows backup
when Windows is booted and Linux is backed up when Linux is booted?  (Now,
for example, if Linux is booted and a Windows backup is attempted, I get
"invalid filelist specification" or some such error).  
Somehow I think I'm missing something simple. ;-)

cheers, wayne
