Directories starting with > are a bit strange even on Mac OS X /
Darwin: that's something your users have done for whatever
reason.
That said, is there something wrong in not bothering with the NEW_STREAM
directive, flipping on multiple streams, and limiting the number that actually
stream to tape simultaneously by the number of jobs on that policy? Sure,
that'll queue up more child jobs than your way, but why does that really
matter?

They have asked me
to backup the above dirs.
On AIX I would not
have a dir that started with ~ or >
The above is about
400 gig, and I want to break it into smaller jobs.
Normaly I would do
that with
New
stream
/mydir/a*
/mydir/b*
/mydir/c*
New
stream
/mydir/d*
/mydir/e*
/mydir/f
But looking at the
names of these dirs with the ~ and > I don’t think I will get
them.
Can someone else
who knows MAC explain to me what the ~ and > are and how you would
break up the backup into smaller jobs?
