Is D:\data something special (like a disk attached at a mountpoint or a SAN volume)?

 

You might be able to do this as your backup selections:

 

ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES

D:\data

Hi All

 

We have the following scenario:

 

3  local volumes on Windows 2003 server:

C:\

D:\

D:\data

 

Policy is configured to backup ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES.

C and D are getting backed up, not D:\data.

 

Admin Guide says NOT to use ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES and Cross Mount Points together.

 

How is everyone else backing up Windows mount points?

 

I’m sure it will work if we explicitly specify them all in the file list, but we do not want to run the risk of missing data if a Sysadmin adds another mount point.

 

NetBackup 6.5.2a.

 

Regards

 

Marianne
