NSR_DIRECTIVE(5)            Legato NetWorker 4.0            NSR_DIRECTIVE(5)


NAME
       NSR directive - NetWorker resource type ``NSR directive''

SYNOPSIS
       type: NSR directive

DESCRIPTION
       Each NSR directive is described by a single resource of type NSR
       directive (see nsrresource(5)).  To edit the NSR directive resources
       for a NetWorker server type:
              nsradmin -c "type:NSR directive"
       See the nsradmin(8) manual page for more information on using the
       NetWorker administration program.

       These resources are used by the NetWorker asm family of commands when
       processing files, see uasm(8) and nsr(5).  Directives can be used to
       improve the efficiency of backups by controlling which files get
       saved and specifying special handling on certain types of files.

ATTRIBUTES
       The following attributes are defined for resource type NSR directive.
       The information in parentheses describes how the attribute values are
       accessed.  Create-only indicates that the value cannot be changed
       after the resource has been created.  Read/write means the value can
       be updated by authorized administrators.  Hidden means it is an
       attribute of interest only to programs or experts, and these
       attributes can only be seen when the hidden option is turned on in
       nsradmin(8) or expert mode (-x) in networker(8).  Dynamic attributes
       have values which change rapidly.  Several additional attributes
       (e.g. administrator) are common to all resources, and are described
       in nsrresource(5).

       name           (create-only)
              The names of directive resources are displayed as choices when
              creating or updating NetWorker client resources, see
              nsrclient(5).  The name can generally be chosen at the admin­
              istrator's convenience, but it must be unique for this Net­
              Worker server.  The directive resource named `Default' may be
              modified, but it may not be deleted. Other directives can only
              be deleted if no clients are using them.
              Example: name: Default;

       directive      (read/write)
              This attribute contains the rules defining the directive.  The
              value of this attribute is similar to the contents of a .nsr
              file except that absolute path names must be specified for
              each << path >> directive.  See nsr(5) for more information on
              the format of NetWorker directives.
              Example: directive: "<< / >> skip : core";

EXAMPLE
       A complete NSR directive resource, named `Default', follows:
                          type: NSR directive;
                          name: Default;
