Reference User guide

If using TSM Edition, only System Backups are supported.

For all profile types, a data list may be specified with the “–b datalist” argument. If it is not

specified, the user will be required to specify the data to backup when configuring a backup

job which uses this profile. If a datalist is specified, the user will still have the option to override

this default value when configuring the backup job. The datalist must be one of the following,

based on the profile type:

Type Description Systems Data to Specify

S System Backup any Volume Group / Zpool name(s)

V Volume Group Linux/AIX Volume Group name(s)

F Filesystem any Filesystem mount point(s) (i.e. “/home /data”)

L Logical volume Linux/AIX Logical volume name(s) (i.e. “lv00 lv01”)

M Meta-disk Linux/Solaris Meta-disk names (i.e. “md0 md1”)

D File/Directory any Directory names (i.e. “/home/sam ..”)

P Partition Linux Raw partition names (i.e. “sda3 sdb5”)

Z ZFS Pool Solaris ZFS Pool name (i.e. “pool1”)

z ZFS Volume Solaris ZFS Volume name (i.e. “pool1/vol1”)

s Slice Solaris Disk slice name (i.e. “c0t0d0s1”)

Changing a profile

If a profile (or customized profile) currently exists, you can change specific options by

specifying only that option and its new argument. For example, to turn eject tape at end of

backups for jobs using profile “mysystem”, use the following command:

stprofile –aey mysystem

stjob –a –eject mysystem

When adding a customized profile, or changing an existing profile, you may specify “none” to

remove the current or default value (i.e. “–preprog none”).
