Backup sets are logical containers that define all of the production data that you want to protect. When you install the IBM i Agent client, a default backup set is automatically created, which contains the following subclients that are designed to act as a catch all, automatically detecting and protecting all data the agent is responsible to protect:
|
Subclient name |
Contents |
|---|---|
|
*ALLDLO |
All documents and folders |
|
*ALLUSR |
All user libraries |
|
*CFG |
The configuration objects |
|
*HST log |
The history logs |
|
*IBM |
All IBM supplied libraries |
|
*LINK |
The system directories, user directories, and the objects that the directories contain |
|
*SECDATA |
The security data |
You can create additional backup sets to provide a separate administration point for a specific group of subclients.
