Backing Up UNIX Systems
Chapter 5 165
To back up this filesystem using NFS, follow the same procedure as if
you were backing up any other filesystem on bserv, except that you have
to manually type /nfs/wiz/home/special as a mountpoint. Only local
filesystems can be browsed.
Figure 5-8 NFS Environment
Limitations You can use NFS only if backing up files on HP-UX clients. You can
not back up soft links, or character and device files.
ACL attributes are not preserved. NFS does not support ACLs on
remote files. Individual manual entries specify the behavior of
various system calls, library calls, and commands. When transferring
a file with optional entries over the network or manipulating a
remote file, the optional entries may be unexpectedly deleted.
