Parameter

Specify the absolute path of the mount point of the volume to be backed up (use
a maximum of 255 bytes).
If no entry for the mount point to be backed up can be found, values specified for

Specify the mount point in the tape backup configuration definition file in the order

Application Agent mounts the drives according to the following rules:

If the mount point is to be passed in an argument for tape backup or restoration:
The system selects the unoccupied drives from the specified drives and mounts
them in alphabetical order.

If the mount point is not specified for tape backup or restoration:
The system selects the unoccupied drives from all unoccupied drives and mounts
them in alphabetical order.

Select either of the rules described above in accordance with the actual operation
method for tape backup or restoration, check the unoccupied drives using Windows
Explorer or other tools, and specify the unoccupied drives in alphabetical order.

When the backup is of an SQL Server Database:
In addition to the mount point that contains the database to be backed up, you
must specify the volume that contains the VDI metafile. For this specification,
enter the absolute path of the directory containing the VDI metafile or write

The VDI metafile storage directory must be specified at the end of

MOUNT_POINT

and in front of

default

.

MOUNT_POINT

CLASS

or

POLICY

name to be used when backing up data that is

stored in the path specified for

SCHEDULE

Specify this when executing the following in parallel: backing up of data to tape,
and restoring data from tape. Specify the number of backup processes to be ex-
ecuted in parallel: from 1 to 999. If you specify a non-numeric character, or a
number outside this range, execution will be performed sequentially, and not in
parallel. Before you can perform backup jobs in parallel, you must create and
configure as many

entries as the number of parallel backup

jobs in NetBackup.
