Our master runs on UNIX but most of the servers we back up are window
based servers using the "all local drives" option. We have about 400
UNIX servers that we do back up and many of these have mounts points to
our EMC storage. What I would like to know is how others backup up UNIX
servers and cross mounts points without duplicating what data they back
up. Many of our UNIX servers only get certain file systems backed up.
Many of our UNIX servers mount to the same space on EMC. So If I create
a policy that crosses mount points I will be backing up the same date
many times over. We are in the process of condensing the number of
policy's we have and combining many into 1 or 2 generic policies for
easy management. But it is becoming clear that not all of our UNIX
servers can use the "all local drives" option and many cannot have cross
mount points. So I was curious how others handle this situation within
their environments. Any thoughts?

Thanks
Greg
