Backup Domino server using BackupExec script file
I want to backup a single NSF database from one of our Domino servers (BE Domino Agent is installed and working) using a BackupExec script file. The "Command line applet" reference PDF which also contains the refrence for creating script files is very scarce on examples of how to backup a Domino server. Every "Selection" entry in the script file (which defines what exactly to back up on the Domino) apparantly has to or should consist of the following "parameters":
PATH1=servername.domain.local|F:\lotus\domino\data\names.nsf
LNSERVER1=servername.domain.local
LNDRIVE1=F:
INCLUDE1=YES
SUBDIRS1=NO
What are the correct values for PATH, LNSERVER and LNDRIVE for backing up a single NSF database on a Domino server? I have tried all combinations that came to my mind, but the job either fails, or backs up all NSF databases. Manually creating a selection list in the BE GUI and selecting only the desired NSF database works very well, but I can not get it to work using a BE script.

RE: Backup Domino server using BackupExec script file
If is much easier to create the job/selection list from the console, and then call that job using BEMCMD, than to tryu to create one using the tool
If this response answers your concern, please mark it as a "solution"
The BEMCMD feature that you
The BEMCMD feature that you are using is only good for file selection. It cannot be used for backup done through an agent. What you are trying to do is to back up the .nsf as a file. This cannot be done because .nsf is automatically excluded by AFE.
