Hi Christian,
Thanks for the info. Does anyone know of a document or list of all of
these exclusions?
Regards,
Shawn

[ADSM-L] SV: Linux Operating System excludes?
Hi Shawn,
If you wanna backup /dev in Linux or any other UNIX system you need to add
VirtualMountPoint
Options File
Place this option in the dsm.sys file.
Syntax
.- ---------------------------.
V |
>>---VIRTUALMountpoint directory-+-----------------------------><

In this case, /dev is just a subdirectory of /
[root@tsmtest1 ~]# df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00
74053032 5427680 64802968 8% /
/dev/sda1 101086 16765 79102 18% /boot
tmpfs 777736 0 777736 0% /dev/shm

Shawn

df will probably show you something like:
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
udev 10240 84 10156 1% /dev
As you can see, /dev is not even a normal filesystem (unlike Solaris
and AIX), so making backups is of little use. It is generated on the
fly by the kernel. It is important to backup /etc/udev/
