To *,

I have a Sun OS 5.8 / TSM 5.2 client exhibiting strange behavior. All non-system
volume groups (VGs) are not getting backed up with a "regular" incremental, TSM
sees the directory  mount point but that's it, nothing except for the directory
stub gets backed up. All files associated with the system VG  (i.e. rootvg in
AIX terms) and being backed up correctly (i.e. the "inc" is examining all
subdirectories and their contents).

If i do and incremental and explicitly reference the non-system VG filesystems
(i.e. inc /apps) then everything works fine????

The non-system VGs were created using EMC's PowerPath Volume Manager. Has anyone
had any experience with this volume manager?
Has anyone experienced similar symptoms on a SUN box??

Any assistance would be appreciated. TIA....
