Using Run Options in a Backup Command
Include the LISTALL option to get a complete listing of the files backed up and the files
that generate errors or warnings. This example shows the output from a Backup
command with the LISTALL option:
Backup displays:
In this example, the Backup operation requires two tapes. Backup displays the prompt
“Mount Next Tapes #2?”when the first tape is full. After you mount another tape, press
Return to continue the Backup process.
With the LISTALL option, you can create a permanent record of the files that were
copied. In your Backup command, include the LISTALL option and name a disk file or
a spooler location for the OUT option. You can label the contents of the tape by
attaching the output to the reel or cartridge.
Omitting Files From a Backup
To omit some files from the backup, specify them with the NOT option. For example,
this command backs up all files in subvolume $CAFFE.MED except MITSLAG and
MOKA:
