Re: [ADSM-L] backing up just a few directories?

Specify the directories in the command line, e.g.:
dsmc i /dir1/ /dir2/ /etc/ -subdir=yes
etc.
You can define a separate schedule for the machine and put the directories
in the OBJECTS field of the schedule, e.g.:
def schedule standard special objects="/dir1/ /dir2/ /etc/"
options="-subdir=yes"

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.
