In each of these cases, when you need to enter a name, you will either have to findthe error message containing the trans<strong>for</strong>mation, or construct the name using theabove outlined rule.Mac OS X volume names<strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> backs up volumes based on their <strong>UNIX</strong> mount point name.<strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> maintains each volume name as a separate restore orretrieve volume. These volume names become the names of file spaces on theserver.If you change the name of a volume you have already backed up, <strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong><strong>Manager</strong> sees it as a new volume <strong>and</strong> does not relate it to the previous one. Anybackup of the volume backs up the files under the new name. A mismatch mightoccur if you rename your volumes, or if you access <strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> from adifferent workstation than the one from which you backed up the files.Mac OS X volume naming precautions<strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> creates all new <strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> file spaces on theserver with the <strong>UNIX</strong> mount point of the volume. If there are two volumes withthe names such as "La Pomme" <strong>and</strong> "la pomme", two unique <strong>UNIX</strong> mount points arecreated.The following is an example:/Volumes/La Pomme/Volumes/la pommeIf duplicate volumes exist on your desktop, it is possible <strong>for</strong> the <strong>UNIX</strong> mountpoints to be different than the last time <strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> did a backup.<strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> might not back up the data to the correct file system on the<strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> server.The file system to which <strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> will back up the data can bechecked. In the TSM <strong>Backup</strong> window, select a file system. Then choose File →Show Info. The <strong>UNIX</strong> mount point is at the top of the In<strong>for</strong>mation dialog.The best way to avoid any potential naming problems is to ensure that the volumenames are unique.Note:1. The <strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> client continues to use the existing file space nameson the <strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> Server. Only new file spaces use the <strong>UNIX</strong>mount point <strong>for</strong> the name.2. Do not specify volumes with periods in the name (...). <strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong>uses the sequence of periods as part of include-exclude processing. <strong>Tivoli</strong><strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> reports an invalid include-exclude statement if a volume has asequence of periods in the name. The volume must be renamed.Mac OS X volume naming precautions on dual boot systemsIf you have more than one version of Mac OS X that you switch between, it iscritical that you underst<strong>and</strong> how <strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> uses the <strong>UNIX</strong> mountpaths <strong>for</strong> file space names on the <strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> server.For example, consider a dual-boot system that has two volumes, Panther <strong>and</strong>Tiger. The finder <strong>and</strong> the <strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> GUI displays these as Panther116 <strong>IBM</strong> <strong>Tivoli</strong> <strong>Storage</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>UNIX</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Linux</strong> <strong>Backup</strong>-<strong>Archive</strong> Clients Version 6.1: Installation <strong>and</strong> User’s Guide
