Using BEMCMD to create backup jobs for Unix

Hi


We are using Backup Exec for Windows Servers. I want to create a backup job with bemcmd.exe utility for one of our Sun Solaris Unix servers. The server does not use Remote Agent, but Legacy Agent. I am able to create a jobb with:

bemcmd -o90 -v -w -fBackup_Settings.txt

But the job does not point at the target host, but the local host. And the folders I have chosen to backup are in upper case, even when I type them in lowercase! What is it I do wrong?

Backup_Settings.txt file contains many lines:


JOB_TYPE=Backup
JOB_PRIORITY=Medium
JOB_NAME=Test Job


BK_SET_NAME=TEST
BK_METHOD=0
USE_OPEN_FILE_OPTION=1
RETENSION_MEDIA=0
REMOTE_AGENT_PRIORITY=MEDIUM
OPEN_FILE_CONFIGURATION=1
SNAPSHOT_PROVIDER=0
OVERWRITE_JOB=1


MEDIA_SET=TEST
APPEND=1
APPEND_NO_OVERWRITE=0
VERIFY=1
COMPRESSION_TYPE=2






SCHED_EFFECTIVE=01/11/2006
SCHED_STARTTIME=23:00:00
SCHED_ENDTIME=06:00:00
/* SCHED_RESTART_INTERVAL=HH:MM:SS
SCHED_REPEAT_INTERVAL=1
SCHED_DAYSOFWEEK=1-7/1,1-7/2,1-7/3,1-7/4,1-7/5
/* SCHED_ANCHOR=01/11/2006
/* DATE=01/11/2006
/* TIME=11:00:00


UNIX1=unixhost.local



PATH1=/usr/*.*

INCLUDE1=1

SUBDIRS1=1

Thanks, I have already check that PDF file. It gives commands only for standard Unix agent, not Lagacy Agents.
