The problem was fixed by duplicating the current policy and testing
/boot and / separately then deleting that test policy and then doing a
regular backup again and it was fixed.

The netBackup tech was not sure what fixed it but he said there may have
been some policy corruption somewhere .

Do you have "Enable multiple streams" set on the policy?

# /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpbackup /boot

This seems to work just fine.

(using the User-Backup facility/policy/schedule)


11:02:28.676 [2651] <2> mount build_mount_list: INF - Processing (ext3)
/dev/hda1 on /boot
11:02:28.681 [2651] <2> mount build_mount_list: INF - Processing (ext3)
/dev/hda1 on /boot
11:02:28.682 [2651] <2> mount build_mount_list: INF - Processing (ext3)
/dev/hda1 on /boot
11:02:28.682 [2651] <2> mount build_mount_list: INF - Processing (ext3)
/dev/hda1 on /boot
11:02:28.683 [2651] <2> mount build_mount_list: INF - Processing (ext3)
/dev/hda1 on /boot
11:02:28.683 [2651] <8> bpbkar SelectFile: WRN - /boot is in a different
file system from /. Skipping.
11:02:28.683 [2651] <2> mount build_mount_list: INF - Processing (ext3)
/dev/hda1 on /boot

Skipping?!?!!?

The policy is the same for all of the internal clients.

ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES

That's strange, it works for me. Suggest you enable logging for bpbkar 
on the client machine, and it should walk the filesystems and tell you 
why it's not backing it up. I assume the policy is configured OK?
