Part of answer is how I have my dsm.opt setup, with comments on Windows versions below: *---------------------------------------------------------------- * Options file examples: * * DOMAIN depends on what OS and what you want to backup. * To backup everything, just use "ALL-LOCAL" * To backup only certain drives, like local in an MS Cluster, * Use one version depending on OS of either W2K or W2003 below.
DOMain ALL-LOCAL * For W2k use like below: * DOMain SYSTEMOBJECT C: D: * * For W2003 use like below: * DOMAIN SYSTEMSTATE SYSTEMSERVICES C: D: *---------------------------------------------------------------- David B.

I have nodes defined for window's os that I just want to backup system objects, c: and d: drives. I have other nodes defined for the e: and f: drives. I tried c: d: systemobject systemservices systemstate and e: f: for the other one. When I enter q opt, I see everything under the domain for both nodes. Also the problem with using systemobject systemservices systemstate is that they don't all apply to every version of windows and I do have a several versions. I am looking for examples in defining the client options. I am also trying to stay away from using the minus sign because I know I will run into some host that have g: h: ,etc and want to explicitly define the domains.
