Tivoli Storage Manager for NetWare Backup-Archive Client Installation and User's Guide

Domain

The domain option specifies the volumes that you want to include for incremental backup in your client domain.

Notes:

  1. The Tivoli Storage Manager Client API does not support this option.
  2. The server can also define this option.

Use the domain option in your client options file to define your default client domain. Tivoli Storage Manager uses your default client domain in the following situations to determine which volumes to process during an incremental backup:

If you do not use the domain option to specify volumes in your client options file, Tivoli Storage Manager uses the all-local parameter as the default.

When you use the domain option with the incremental command, Tivoli Storage Manager adds volumes that you specify to the volumes defined in your client options file. For example, if you enter the following in your client options file:

   domain sys: data: NDS: 

and the following on the command line:

   dsmc incremental -domain=usr:   

Tivoli Storage Manager performs an incremental backup for your sys:, data:, and usr: volumes.

If you use both a file specification and the domain option with the incremental command, Tivoli Storage Manager ignores the domain option and processes only those volumes that you specify in the file specification. .

Options File

Place this option in the client options file dsm.opt.

all-local
Backs up all local volumes. This is the default.

The NDS is not included in the all-local domain. To include the NDS, add the directory to the domain entry.

domain
Defines the volumes to include in your default client domain.

When you use domain with the incremental command, it processes these volumes in addition to those you specify in your default client domain.
