I'm pretty sure that the Web GUI does not prefill its list of what you can 
backup based on the options file.  It instead prefills it with a list of local 
drives.  The restore unlike the backup windows prefills its list based on what 
filespaces have been backed up on the TSM server.
 
I think the local GUI works the same way.

We are trying to configure a Windows box to act as the CIFS mountpoint to
a CELERRA NAS.

Since there will be multiple owners/mounts/nodes to this box, we are
setting up the web-gui to handle the restores, etc. Due to the expected
large number of mounts, we will not be able to give every point a
drive-letter, so the backups have to be via CIFS/UNC mountpoint.

We have a unique DSM.OPT file with a specific DOMAIN statement, etc per
mountpoint.

We we tried the web-gui to perform BACKUPS, the CIFS/UNC mountpoints are
not visible/accessible !

However, when we perform a backup via standard Windows gui, the web
interface can then see the backups from the RESTORE windows.

What are we missing ? Why can't we see the CIFS\UNC mountpoints via web ?
