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

Subdir

The subdir option specifies whether you want to include subdirectories of named directories for processing during backup, archive, restore, retrieve, and query operations.

For example, if you specify subdir=yes when backing up a specific path and file, Tivoli Storage Manager recursively backs up all subdirectories under that path, and any instances of the specified file that exist under any of those subdirectories.

Notes:

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

Preferences File

Place this option in the TSM User Preferences file.

Syntax

          .-No--.
>>-SUbdir-+-----+----------------------------------------------><
          '-Yes-'
 
 

Parameters

No
Subdirectories are not processed. This is the default.

Yes
Subdirectories are processed. Because the client program searches all subdirectories of a directory that is being processed, processing can take longer to complete. Specify Yes only when necessary.

Examples

TSM User Preferences:
subdir no
