Backup of VM/MVS NFS mounted file systems

ITEM: RTA000067423



Is it possible to mount NFS VM or MVS filesytems on a RS/6000, and to           
backup these filesystems with ADSM/6000 ?                                       
                                                                                
                                                                                
ANSWER                                                                          
                                                                                
Yes it is possible to do this. In order to allow ADSM to successfully           
read the VM/MVS NFS mounted minidisks, you must add the following               
to the dsm.opt file for the client:                                             
                                                                                
dotdircheck      no                                                             
                                                                                
this will allow ADSM to cope with the fact that minidisks do not have           
the . and .. file system entries.
