Solstice Backup 5.1 Administration Guide

Example: Directing Client Indexes and Bootstrap to a Separate Pool

You can use regular expression matching to direct the client indexes and bootstrap to a different pool than you send the backup data.

In the following example, the client file indexes are in /nsr/index. To send the Backup server's bootstrap and all the client file indexes from this filesystem to the same pool, create a pool (in the Pools resource) with the following attributes:


name: Index;
pool type: Backup;
save sets: bootstrap, /nsr/index/.*;
levels: ;

When the group's scheduled backup runs, the client save sets are written to a volume labeled for the appropriate save set pools, while the Backup server's bootstrap and /nsr/index save sets are written to a separate volume labeled for the "Index" pool.
