Backup specification

[Igor Sovin]

Hi!
I need to create Backup Specification in Data Protector 5.5
How to do that from command line interface, not from the GUI?

hi igor,

this can easily be done by creating the Backup Specification file in the directory: /etc/opt/omni/datalists/

e.g.
DATALIST "delete-me"
RECONNECT
DYNAMIC 1 5
DEFAULTS
{
FILESYSTEM
{
-lock
-no_hlink
-touch
-encode
-compress
-profile

} -protect days 1
RAWDISK
{

}
}

DEVICE "dds"
{
}

HOST "server.domain.com" server.domain.com
{
}



hope this helps!

kind regards

Hi,

The specification sorted on the basis of applications are lying in /etc/opt/omni/barlists/ directory. You can copy existing specification and modify it as per requirements to get a new specifications.

Allthough it is always good to do this using GUI. Is there any special reason for not choosing that?

HTH,
