About host identity-specific files excluded from the backup
To proactively avoid vulnerabilities, certain host identity-specific files are excluded from the backup.
To identify the files that are not backed up, you can run one the following commands:
nbgetconfig -private_exld_list
bpgetconfig -private_exld_list
For more information about the commands see the NetBackup Commands Reference Guide.
Including the files in the backup:
If you don't want to exclude certain files from the backup, you must include those files in the include list.
For more information, see See About excluding files from automatic backups.
Recreating the files that were not backed up:
The files that are not backed up are not restored. Ideally, the files would reside on the original location. However, in case you want to recreate the files, some of the key files and certificates can be recreated by restarting the NetBackup services. If you encounter any error that is related to keys or certificates, restart the NetBackup services and verify if the key files or the certificate is recreated.
If the key file or certificate is not created, proceed with the certificate and key regeneration procedures that are provided in the NetBackup Commands Reference Guide.
