What question? Do you mean:

   "Is anyone out there using the domain parameter in a client option set?"

The trivial answer to that is "yes", but I didnt' really think that was 
the "question" (though I could be wrong). My perception was that the 
poster wanted a way to avoid backing up the system objects, implemented 
through client options sets rather than local options files. I think my 
answer works for that.

As to why it works that way (Juraj, is this what you are asking for?):

If DOMAIN is not coded in the options file, then DOMAIN ALL-LOCAL is the 
default. So coupled with the current client options set (remember, DOMAIN 
statements are cumulative), the domain effectively looks like this:

   DOMAIN ALL-LOCAL -C: D:

My suggestion make the domain look like this:

   DOMAIN ALL-LOCAL -C: D: -SYSTEMOBJECT

So all domains except for C: and SYSTEMOBJECT will be backed up. If all 
Greg has is C:, D:, and SYSTEMOBJECT, then this resolves the issue.

Another alternative that doesn't involve the client options sets: modify 
the client schedule so that D: is specified in the OBJECTS setting, i.e.:

   upd sch standard mysched objects="d:"

Other ideas are welcome, and if I've missed the point, perhaps Greg can 
restate the question.

Andy

Hmm ;) Andy,

while this is a good point this does not answer the question, does it?

Why not add "-systemobject" to the domain setting in your client options
set?

Is anyone out there using the domain parameter in a client option set?

I am trying to just back up the D drive on a machine, in the option set I
have domain option value set to "-c: d:".

There is no domain option in the local options file, and the issue is that
the system objects keep getting backed up!
Given that this is a field office with a 128 K connection, this is an
issue.  I would like to use the option sets and yes I could just use the
local option file, but I would like to keep as little settings in the
local option file as possible.

Client: 5.1.5.15
Server: 5.1.6.2

Thanks for any input!
