Geert -

The DOMain syntax is to simply list the file systems to be included in 
incremental backups.  More than one DOMain statement may appear in the options 
file: it is an additive option.

Remember that if you are running client schedules via 'dsmc schedule' instead 
of CAD, the prevailing dsmc process will not see any changes made to the client 
options file: the process needs to be restarted to operate under changed 
specifications.

The "unrecognized symbols" thing is a locale issue that all Linux 
administrators face, preventing the backup of some files.  Search on that 
string in http://people.bu.edu/rbs/ADSM.QuickFacts for how I dealt with it.
