Rob:

Good question, because when you use the ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES file list directive
and you have file system types that differ from / on your client, it will
miss those that differ.  I haven't been able to test this theory out, but
one of my students last week brought it up as a problem in their site.

The work around they go with is / in the file list with cross mount points
selected.

Now given that, how does it work?

Subject: [Veritas-bu] ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES directive


On a UNIX NBU client, ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES dynamically
determines the file list at backup time.

When it does so, does it consult the kernel's actual
mnttab entries, or does it check in the (v)fstab
configuration file?

Just wondering...
