Hi All

 

Thanks to all who responded.

bpmount only picked up C: and D:

 

The solution is indeed ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES with Cross Mount Points.

If it would have been different drive letters it would have been backed up. Now what you have to do is to select ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES and select cross mount points

Thanks & Regards,

[Veritas-bu] Windows Mount points & ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES

 




Hi All
 
We have the following scenario:
 
3  local volumes on Windows 2003 server:
C:\
D:\
D:\data
 
Policy is configured to backup ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES.
C and D are getting backed up, not D:\data.
 
Admin Guide says NOT to use ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES and Cross Mount Points together.
 
How is everyone else backing up Windows mount points?
 
I’m sure it will work if we explicitly specify them all in the file list, but we do not want to run the risk of missing data if a Sysadmin adds another mount point.
 
NetBackup 6.5.2a.
 
Regards
