    Socket special files don't need to be backed up - so you can ignore that one. The ones showing as in a diff file system, are not an issue either - you aren't crossing mount points, so when for example netbackup encouters /rpool it skips it, bcause it will get it later, when it backs up the /rpool file system (otherwise it would be backed up twice). * * Providing you have /rpool listed in the policy file selection, OR, you are backuping up all_local_drives. So in sumary, providing you are select all local drives, or, have listed all the filesystems inividually, then you do not have an issue.
