perhaps examine the output from:
bppllist <policy_in_question> -U -L
And, from the client, with logging set to 5
(bp.conf VERBOSE = 5)
the /usr/openv/netbackup/logs/bpbkar and bpcd log files.
It will give an indication of how it is choosing the paths to follow.
We use the ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES (w/o cross mount points, as you say) in our
windows policies.
And locally (on each client) we set an include of:
*:\
This may get CDROMs as well, but may help your situation if the bppllist
shows that NBU is indeed only using the ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES directive.
