The options and objects you fill in for the schedule are the same as if you specified from the "dsmc" command line. For example, to back up this directory manually, you would run:
dsmc selective /export/home/ -subdir=yes (omitting the '*' eliminates the need for double quotes around the file spec) So to put this in a schedule, the corresponding OBJECTS and OPTIONS should match: define schedule ... objects=/export/home/ options=-subdir=yes Regards, Andy Andy Raibeck IBM Software Group Tivoli Storage Manager Client Development Internal Notes e-mail: Andrew Raibeck/Tucson/[EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] IBM Tivoli Storage Manager support web page: http://www-306.ibm.com/software/sysmgmt/products/support/IBMTivoliStorageManager.html The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
