[gpfsug-discuss] mmbackup with fileset : scope errors

[Jaime Pinto]

I have a g200 /gpfs/sgfs1 filesystem with 3 filesets:
* project3
* scratch3
* sysadmin3

I have no problems mmbacking up /gpfs/sgfs1 (or sgfs1), however we  
have no need or space to include *scratch3* on TSM.

Question: how to craft the mmbackup command to backup  
/gpfs/sgfs1/project3 and/or /gpfs/sgfs1/sysadmin3 only?

Below are 3 types of errors:

1) mmbackup /gpfs/sgfs1/sysadmin3 -N tsm-helper1-ib0 -s /dev/shm  
--tsm-errorlog $logfile -L 2

ERROR: mmbackup: Options /gpfs/sgfs1/sysadmin3 and --scope filesystem  
cannot be specified at the same time.

2) mmbackup /gpfs/sgfs1/sysadmin3 -N tsm-helper1-ib0 -s /dev/shm  
--scope inodespace --tsm-errorlog $logfile -L 2

ERROR: Wed May 17 16:27:11 2017 mmbackup:mmbackup: Backing up  
dependent fileset sysadmin3 is not supported
Wed May 17 16:27:11 2017 mmbackup:This fileset is not suitable for  
fileset level backup.  exit 1

3) mmbackup /gpfs/sgfs1/sysadmin3 -N tsm-helper1-ib0 -s /dev/shm  
--scope filesystem --tsm-errorlog $logfile -L 2

ERROR: mmbackup: Options /gpfs/sgfs1/sysadmin3 and --scope filesystem  
cannot be specified at the same time.

These examples don't really cover my case:
