Tivoli Storage Manager for UNIX Backup-Archive Clients Installation and User's Guide

Domain.nas

The domain.nas option specifies the volumes to include in your NAS image backups. You can specify all-nas to include all the mounted file systems on the NAS file server, except those you exclude with the exclude.fs.nas option. When you use this option in your client system options file (dsm.sys), the domain.nas option defines your default domain for NAS image backups.

Tivoli Storage Manager uses your domain for NAS image backups when you run a backup nas command and you do not specify which volumes to process.

When you perform a NAS file system image backup using the backup nas command, Tivoli Storage Manager adds volumes that you specify on the command line to the volumes defined in your dsm.sys file. For example, if you enter the following in your dsm.sys file:

domain.nas nas1/vol/vol0 nas1/vol/vol1

and you enter the following on the command line

dsmc backup nas -nasnodename=nas1 /vol/vol2

Tivoli Storage Manager performs a backup for the following volumes on node nas1: vol/vol0, vol/vol1, and vol/vol2.

When performing a backup, if you use a file specification and set the domain.nas option to all-nas in the dsm.sys file, all-nas takes precedence. Tivoli Storage Manager processes all mounted volumes on the NAS file server.

Note:
The server can also define this option.
