Brendan,
Change your directive to use the "null" asm instead of skip. This will fix
that problem for the future.
To get past the existing problem use the "recover" CLI utility instead of
the GUI.
Specify your entire path and you will have no problems.
e.g.
Directory backed up = G:\example\dir
You will not be able to do the following:
cd G:\example
cd dir
You will be able to do:
cd G:\example\dir
good luck

Subject: [Networker] multiple save sets on netware
Hi All
In order to boost speed of our netware servers that have about 300GB data
partitions, I had to
1. create a client with specific sub-directories as save sets (using the
normal directive)
2. create a directive to exclude those sub-directories listed in step 1.
3. create a new client entry with the partition getting backed up using
the directive created in step 2.
The problem I ran into last night though really scared me for awhile.
The sub-directories that I do as specific save sets do NOT show up in the
recover screen. After a bit of a panic, I used mminfo on the server and
found that it was backing up. After about 10 minutes I decided to do a
save set restore to the partition (different subdirectory) as it was only
a differential backup and only 75mb. However, if this had been our once a
week full backup, then I wouldn't have had enough space to restore the
whole save set.
How do I get the restore window to show the sub-directories that I backed
up as seperate save sets? Do I have to use null instead of skip in the
directive?
I have done this with the NT client though and it works fine.
Is it possible to instruct the server to recover a file to a client, not
just to the server?
Any suggestions?
It's a funny thing. We've been using networker under unix for the last 3
years and never a hitch. Trying to get the netware client to work
properly is like pulling teeth. Hopefully, if they're re-doing it,
they'll make at least some of the configuration stuff the same.
cheers!
Brendan
