Mismatch of backup data path and restore data path
We discovered some thing uncommon in netbackup 7.1.0.2 , we were backing up ALL__LOCAL_DRIVE for a Sun Box
and discovered some data was not present while searching in BAR GUI.
after doing some research we discovered the data is actully getting backed up but with different file system path.
Maybe the path is a symbolic link?
NBU backs up the actual path.
For example - NBU on Solaris server is normally installed in /opt with a symbolic link to /usr.
We can now access NBU using /usr/openv/.... in all commands.
Even cd into /usr/openv will show 'pwd' as /usr/openv, but we are actually in /opt/openv.
We only know this when we do a 'ls -l' in /usr.
openv will point to actual path in /opt.pwd
/usr
ls -l.....
....
lrwxrwxrwx <owner> <group> <size> <date> openv -> /opt/openv
