Adding Files and Folders with Unicode Characters to Directive Files for UNIX

If the path or the filename contains Unicode characters, the content file must be converted to a format that can be used during backup operation.

The Unicode Conversion utility must be used to convert the directive file to a format that can be provided as input.

Procedure

1. Using a text editor, create a file that contains a list of files or folders with Unicode characters and save the file as a Unicode text file.

2. From the command line, navigate to the software_installation_directory/Base folder and type the following:

    
   ./CVconvertUnicode $[source_file] $[destination_file]

   where:

   • source_file is the full path and name of the file created in Step 1.

   • destination_file is the full path and name of the destination file. This file is automatically created by the utility.

3. Use the destination file as the directive file to perform an ad-hoc backup operation.
