OSS Backup Examples

The following objects are backed up.

In case of multiple filesets, each with its own exclusion criterion (EXCLUDE filter)

mentioned, if a fileset is explicitly excluded for one fileset and the same exclusion

criterion is specified for another fileset that needs to be backed up, the second

fileset will not be backed up. The exclusion criterion overrides the backup criteria.

For example:

BR> BACKUP =mytape, OSS ((/usr) WHERE EXCLUDE = (/usr/dir0),

(/usr/dir0) WHERE EXCLUDE = (/usr/dir0/dirfil01)) ;

Assume the following directory structure:

In this example, the /usr/dir0 directory is excluded in the first OSS specification

(/usr) WHERE EXCLUDE = (/usr/dir0) but is not included in the

subsequent OSS specification /usr/dir0 "WHERE EXCLUDE =

(/usr/dir0/dirfil01) because it is already removed from the object tree.

Therefore, the /usr/dir0 file is not backed up.

/ Root directory

usr Subdirectory of the root directory

dir0 Directory in the /usr directory

dirfi100 File in the /usr/dir0 directory

dir1 Directory in the /usr directory

dirfi110 File in the /usr/dir1 directory

usr1 File in the /usr directory

usr3 File in the /usr directory
