We have a number of Veritas Cluster Systems (VCS) running on Solaris/Linux in 
our environment.  Most of the VCS systems have a specific service group and the 
vxfs file system would just be mounted on one of the two (or more) nodes in the 
cluster. We backup that file system via a client resource with the backup 
command save -c <name>, list the specific directories in the saveset 
properties, etc..... Name is the name of the service group.

We understand that situation. Now, we have a number of systems running CFS 
(cluster file system) whereby the same vxfs file system is mounted on a number 
of different hosts at the same time. How do I setup my client resource so that 
I do not backup this shared disk resource five times if it is mounted on five 
different hosts at the same time?
I obviously could pick one host to backup all the shared filesystems, but that 
doesn't seem very fault tolerant if that host happens to be down.
