Thanks!
This makes sense, but why don't the indexes get backed up when the server next
gets backed up ?
I have another group/pool that has several clients, none of which is the server
and that seems happy. Why is a group/pool with 1 client different ?
^# Hi there!
^#
^# Client indexes are stored on the NetWorker server. When the
^# group completes and the indexes are stored, a save is started
^# on the server, which backs up the indexes. The client
^# for the index save is the server, because that is where the
^# data is coming from, not the client from the regular backup.
^#
^# I don't know how to direct a particular client's index
^# to a different pool from the rest. I'm afraid you will
^# have to research this yourself, or perhaps someone else
^# will have an answer.
^#
^# There has been a lot of discussion on the subject of
^# indexes and pools over the years. Searching the archives
^# might help. Note that if your goal is completely isolating
^# client index data on particular tapes, you will need to
^# figure out how to exclude that clients index from the
^# regular server backup and bootstrap. Such a scheme will
^# make disasster recovery very difficult, though.
