FreeBSD

You can use the Commvault software to back up and restore <FREEBSD_FILE_SYSTEM_AGENTS>.

Backups

What Is Backed Up

The following file system elements are backed up:

  • Files that have holes

  • Files that have advisory locks

  • Raw device files

  • A maximum path level of 10 symbolic links pointing to each raw device

  • Files that have names that contain non-ASCII characters, if the appropriate locales are set

  • Symbolic links that are browsed or that are manually added to the data contents

  • Shares that have Mac file system data

  • Files that have a file path or a file name that contains more than 1024 characters

Note

By default, files that have a mandatory lock are not backed up. To back up these files, see Configuring Backups for Locked Files
