> Hi all,
>
> According to ADSM documentation, symbolic links are followed during an
> archive operation. Is it possible to tell ADSM to ignore the sym links
?
>
> I encouter big problems because some of our users have symbolic links
> that point to a path that is above, example:
> /w/ling/data/prog/source/bin/data --> /w/ling/data
> in that case, ADMS never stops to recursively archive the /w/ling/data
> directory ..!
>
> Thanks for any help !
