Netbackup OES 2 NSS and Open File Option

[Kenne]

Hi,

Anybody knows if it's possible to use the open file option on NSS volumes running on OES 2 ?

I would like to know this as well

Does  netbackup backup NSS open files on Linux?

Note: We are using Netbackup 7.0 client

You should open you own thread - as if someone solves it for you, you would not be able to mark the thread as solved unless you own it

As per the other post to hopefully complete this one as well:

Create a Standard policy on the Master Server using the NetWare server as the client and the targets for the Backup Selections.  These targets can be used for backup and restore the same way normal NetWare server targets are used.  See the Veritas NetBackup for Novell NetWare Client System Administrator's Guide for UNIX and Windows for more information.  The Open File Backup Option cannot be used on NSS volumes when mounted on OES for Linux.
