Actually, sounds like a client-side exclude list.  What's in your
/usr/openv/netbackup/exclude_list* file(s)?

firewire drives


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

automount -fstab [306]                           0          0         0

automount -static [306]                          0          0         0
100%    /automount/static
/dev/disk2s6                             120050960   64561308  55489652

80%    /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,
