RE: HP OmniBack II backup?

Don,
OmniBack does not backup mounted file systems. It backs up the directory as a empty directory. The warning message is telling you that the file system mounted at "/u04" is not being backed up as part of "/". You have two choices to back up mounted files systems. One is to add the file system to the OmniBack backup specification. In addition to "/" in the backup specification , add "/u04". A second method is to not add any file systems to the backup specification. OmniBack will discover all locally mounted file systems on the server when the backup starts. If you add a new files system, OmniBack will automatically back it up without any changes to the backup specification.
Hope this helps.

The HP UX sys admin showed me that the backup starts at the root directory and copies everything from there on - each night and every night. That seems like a lot of extra copying, but that's another story.

Since the db is shut down 2 hours before the backup kicks off, we should be getting a good db backup. However, I am finding the following messages in the Omni logs. Can you explain what the message means?

   Warning: /u04 is mounted to a different file system. Directory backed up as an empty directory.

Thx - Don
