NEW_STREAM with wildcards

Hi all,

 

We have a huge file server and i've setup the backup selection as follows:

 

d:\folder\a*
NEW_STREAM
d:\folder\b*
d:\folder\c*
NEW_STEAM
d:\folder\d*

 

This works very well, but, the problem is, what if a folder on d:\folder "e" is created. Is there a way to ensure that Netbackup picks up any new subfolders of "folder"?

Thank you,

 

Seth

 

  • You can create a new policy with d:\folder\* as backup selection and then exclude d:\folder\a*, d:\folder\b*, d:\folder\c* and d:\folder\d* for this particular policy.

     

    By this way, you can ensure that no newly created folder is missed.
