Configuration Files for UNIX Systems

The following are examples of different variations of UNIX systems configuration files.

Example: Solaris 8 or Solaris 9 operating system with a UFS file system with fssnap installed

The first line of the file is a debugging flag. The three sections that follow the debug entry correspond to the /opt, /export/home, and / volumes on the disk.

The sections for /opt and /export/home have Snapshot enabled during backup, and the / section has Direct I/O enabled for backup and restore.

##DEBUG
[/opt]
DOSNAP=BACKUP
SNAPSHOTBUFFER=/garbage/snapbufferfile_1
[/export/home]
DOSNAP=BACKUP
SNAPSHOTBUFFER=/garbage/snapbufferfile_2
[/]
DOUBIO=BACKUP_RESTORE

Example: Solaris 8 operating system with the advanced version of the VxFS file system installed

The file contains three sections. The first line of the file is a debugging flag. The three sections in the file are /opt, /export/home, and / volume. Sections for /opt and /export/home have Snapshot enabled during backup, and the / volume has Direct I/O enabled for backup and restore.

T##DEBUG
[/opt]
DOSNAP=BACKUP
SNAPSHOTBUFFER=/dev/dsk/c0t0d0s4
[/export/home]
DOSNAP=BACKUP
SNAPSHOTBUFFER=/dev/dsk/c0t0d0s4
[/]
DOUBIO=BACKUP_RESTORE

Example: HP-UX operating system having either an advanced version of the VxFS file system or the online JFS file system installed

The file contains four sections. The first line of the file is a debugging flag. The sections in the file are the /, /var, /usr, and /export volumes. In this file the / volume is enabled for Direct I/O during backup and restore and the other volumes are enabled for Snapshot during backup.
