DSM.OPT

[TBart]

I'm new to this board, and I already love it.



I am having trouble with backing up networked drives. If I perform the backup from the Baclient GUI, I can back up any files out there, even if they are mapped to another server. However, when I run a scheduled backup, I only get directory structure and not actual files. Is there something obvious that causes this?



Here's an example of what my dsm.opt file is like on this particular client:



-------------------------------------------------------------------------

NODE NAME XXXXXXXXXX

PASSWORDACCESS GENERATE

TCPSERVERADDRESS XXXXXXXXXX

MANAGEDSERVICES WEBCLIENT



SCHEDMODE PROMPTED



TCPBUFFSIZE 63

TCPWINDOWSIZE 62



EXCLUDE "?:*\...\*"

EXCLUDE "*"

EXCLUDE "*:\...\*\...\"

INCLUDE "Z:\DIRECTORY1\SUBDIRECTORY1\*\*.*"

INCLUDE "Z:\DIRECTORY1\SUBDIRECTORY2\*"



SUBFILEBACKUP YES

TCPNODELAY YES

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

With these include/exclude items, I get a directory structure but no files. If I run a selective backup from the client I have no problems.



Help!



Thanks,

TBart

According to what we use that seems to work:



INCLUDE Z:\DIRECTORY1\SUBDIRECTORY1\...\*

INCLUDE Z:\DIRECTORY1\SUBDIRECTORY2\...\*

That works fine. Also needed to make sure my Scheduler on the client was not the system account. When I ran it under a domain admin account, it worked.
