Our current NetWorker server has a single GigE connection, and a static IP address. I have been able to finagle another network connection. What would the best method of adding this connection be? Its an HP Proliant server, so I could use the HP network card teaming drivers, but I dont know if...

I have a large file server, with several (10 or so) different save sets running. For its first full backup, which ran last weekend, it seems as though all the save sets finished, in around 13 hours, but for some reason the client job continued to run for another 4 days. If I looked in the...

Thats the politics my man. As always, I'll fight the good fight, and try to explain the risks here...but as usual, I will lose. Oh well :)

You have NO idea...the pain...the horror...the agony of managing these fileservers....its a good thing i dont keep any sharp object, rope, or hemlock near my desk :) I'll try the local directive route.

Thanks all for the assistance. Still hving some problems though. Heres the error output: Jun 05 04:21:14 b04legp01.prd.manulifeusa.com: * pbosfile06.prd.manulifeusa.com:d:\Shared\Cfis 1 retry attempted Jun 05 04:21:14 b04legp01.prd.manulifeusa.com: *...

To the post about local directives...is there anything you need to do to allow them? Or will the always be used unless specifically excluded....and do they play nice with server based directives? I should probably get to a NetWorker class eh? -Rob

So use "always" first, before the "skip" exclusion? Upgrade probably wont help, already on 7.3.1 Downside to this now is that if a new file is added, it won't be covered... And in a "Skip" "null" or "Always" what do you do for a file or directory that has spaces in it?

...and getting the users to move their folders is also probably not an option.

Unfortunately, there is a folder called: BuyerXpert 3.0 Product Documentation along with some other files that DO need to be backed up. :(

Here is the folder D:\Shared\Cfis\SDLC\Projects\All Completed Projects\CFIS00000448 eProcurement 2001\Other Documents\Other Documents\BuyerX 3.0 Documents From Livelink\06 - Implementation and Architecture\Production Architecture\BuyerXpert 3.0.1\ Within this foler are 2 subfolders that Legato...

Is there a good doc out there on setting up a disk->disk->tape solution with NetWorker?

Thanks so much! Any advice on increasing the parralellism of the tape drives? How much is too much? The built in default is 4, the max is 512....thats a lot of room in between. Anyone have experience in finding a comfortable middle ground?

What about this? Is tehre a way to backup all of the files in a given directory, excluding any subdirectories from backup?

Is there any particular drawback to having a Client with 100 or so save sets?
