Yeah, that's actually what i thought might be the culprit but there are NO
exclude lists on these clients.
I noticed that there is a hodge-podge of client settings with the policy and
looking further into this it looks like there are various OS's and client
software installed:
Client OS Kernel NetBackup Client
NetBackup Setting
------ --- ------ ----------------
-----------------
raptor Mac OS X 10.3.4 (7H63) Darwin 7.4.0 NetBackup-MacOSXS1.2
4.5FP_4 MacOSXS1.2
tornado Mac OS X 10.2.8 (6R73) Darwin 6.8 NetBackup-MacOSXS1.2 4.5MP3
MacOSX
eagle Mac OS X 10.2.6 (6L60) Darwin 6.6 NetBackup-MacOSXS1.2
4.5FP_4 MacOSXS1.2
tigershark Mac OS X 10.3.4 (7H63) Darwin 7.4.0 NetBackup-MacOSXS1.2
4.5FP_4 MacOSXS1.2
pentagon Mac OS X 10.3.4 (7H63 Darwin 7.4.0 NetBackup-MacOSX10.2
4.5FP_4 MacOSX10.2
skyhawk Mac OS X 10.2.6 (6L60) Darwin 6.6 NetBackup-MacOSXS 3.4GA
MacOSX10.2
Maybe i don't have the most recent Mac client installed and there's a bug in
the older versions? Or possibly just not the correct versions installed for
the appropriate OS?...
Anybody have Mac OS X experience that can let me know what works for them?...
peace,

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

Subject: [Veritas-bu] backups/restores on MacOSX clients with attached
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
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail
Capacity Mounted on
/dev/disk0s2 120617884 111274472 9087412
92% /
devfs 91 91 0
100% /dev
fdesc 1 1 0
100% /dev
<volfs> 512 512 0
100% /.vol
automount -nsl [294] 0 0 0
100% /Network
automount -fstab [306] 0 0 0
100% /automount/Servers
automount -static [306] 0 0 0
100% /automount/static
/dev/disk2s6 120050960 64561308 55489652
54% /Volumes/Firewire
afp_4DMYiq2XSLZw0fxSco0Bjyad-1.2e000003 1991473148 1589414916 402058232
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,
dannyB
