I'm looking to restore data for a Mac OSX client that has a firewire drive
directly attached.
I didn't set up the policies for these client and don't have much Mac OSX
experience, and am trying to figure out how this all works.
Looking at the disk layout it appears that the Firewire drive is mounted as
"/Volumes/Firewire":
macosxclient:~ root# df -k
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail
Capacity Mounted on
/dev/disk0s2 120617884 111274472 9087412 92%

/Volumes/BOB
Unfortunately, i'm not seeing any data in the restore window under the
directory /Volumes/Firewire. There is a directory present in the restore
window but no data below it...
My backup policy uses the "ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES" file directive, with "Follow NFS"
and "Cross mount points" NOT selected. Does this cover an external firewire
drive or do I need to specify those mount points explicitly?
If it does include the firewire drives- am I looking in the right place for
where the data on this firewire drive would be located for a restore (the
/Volumes directory or is there another path I should check)?
peace,
