Client Backup with Disk Discovery
You can discover disks (volumes) on NetWare just as you can for UNIX
or Windows systems.
How Are Disks
Discovered?
If you specify a client backup with disk discovery, Data Protector first
contacts the client and discovers all volumes that belong to the client.
Then it backs up the
CONFIGURATION
item and each discovered volume as
a regular filesystem. The description text for each filesystem object is
generated by appending the volume name, in square brackets, to the
description of the client backup.
For client backup with disk discovery, it is not possible to select only
specific directory trees, because this implies single volume backup. But it
is possible to exclude any directory from the backup.
How to Perform a
NetWare Client
Backup
1. In the
Data Protector Manager
, switch to the
Backup
context.
2. Expand the
Backup
item, and then double-click
Backup
Specifications
.
3. In the Results Area, right-click
Filesystem
, and then click
Add
Backup
.
4. In the
Create New Backup
dialog box, select one of the available
templates.
5. Click
OK
to open the wizard.
6. Click the check box next to the client. This selects the entire client to
be backed up, similar to what is shown in Figure 5-15.
See “Using Backup Options” on page 225 for information on using and
structuring your backup specifications.
