About performing backups in a Domino partitioned server environment
The following examples illustrate two possible configurations of the backup selections list that can be used to back up a Domino partitioned server environment.
Table: Backup selections list examples
Environment | Backup policy |

The environment is a Domino partitioned server environment with two partitions. The Domino data directory for partition 1 is located at D:\Lotus\Domino\data1. The Domino data directory for partition 2 is located at D:\Lotus\Domino\data2. | To back up this environment with two separate NetBackup policies, add the following to the backup selections list: Policy 1 NOTES_INI_PATH=D:\Lotus\Domino\data1\notes.ini D:\Lotus\Domino\data1\ Policy 2 NOTES_INI_PATH=D:\Lotus\Domino\data2\notes.ini D:\Lotus\Domino\data2\ |
The environment is a Domino partitioned server environment with two partitions. The Domino data directory for partition 1 is located at /db/notesdata1. The Domino data directory for partition 2 is located at /db/notesdata2. | To back up this environment with two separate NetBackup policies, add the following to the backup selections list: Policy 1 NOTES_INI_PATH=/db/notesdata1/notes.ini /db/notesdata1 Policy 2 NOTES_INI_PATH=/db/notesdata2/notes.ini /db/notesdata2 |
The environment is a Domino partitioned server environment with three partitions. The Domino data directory for each partition is located as follows:
| Each partition is configured to use archive-style transaction logging. To back up this environment with a single NetBackup policy, add the following to the backup selections list: NEW_STREAM NOTES_INI_PATH=D:\Lotus\Domino\data1\notes.ini D:\Lotus\Domino\data1 BACKUP_TRANSACTION_LOGS NEW_STREAM NOTES_INI_PATH=D:\Lotus\Domino\data2\notes.ini D:\Lotus\Domino\data2 BACKUP_TRANSACTION_LOGS NEW_STREAM NOTES_INI_PATH=D:\Lotus\Domino\data3\notes.ini D:\Lotus\Domino\data3 BACKUP_TRANSACTION_LOGS |
