/var excluded by all-local

[tpesselier]

Hi

On redhat , i just noticed that the all-local option don't save /var (XFS) , it's strange because i don't have exclusion list .

If i want to backup /var i need to use "domain /var" ,it's normal for you ?
I thought all-local only excluded LOFS but i cant' find information about xfs and all-local option

Are you using an older client or a current client? XFS appears supported on currently supported clients (7.1 and 8.1): http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21902417

baclient 7.1.6 ...

All my server with the same configuration (all-local ) but with /var on ext4 working fine , it's very strange

I do not understand why with xfs /var is excluded ( i check with the command preview backup)

Sounds odd.

I will post ibm's answer, for information.
I bypassed it by adding domain /var.
It's annoying i no longer trust the all-domain option now :-(
