UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS X Client Agent Configuration The control files installed for both packages include: ■ Directory Control file Use the Directory Control file, uag.cntl, to list all directories or file systems (or both) that you want to exclude from backup operations on a workstation. To specify directories and file systems in this file, enter a slash (/) followed by a one line, complete path name. For example: /opt/account1 Note: The Directory Control file is stored on the client agent workstation in the uagent home directory. ■ File System Control file The File System Control file, fs.cntl lists the file system types on a particular workstation that are to be excluded from backup operations. To exclude a particular file system type, enter the type on a separate line in the fs.cntl file. Note: The File System file is stored on the client agent workstation in the uagent home directory. ■ Browser Configuration File The Browser Configuration file, cabr.cfg, enables raw devices to be viewed with the browser. You must ensure that you have entered the absolute name of the raw device on a separate line in the cabr.cfg file. ■ Common Agent Configuration File The Common Agent configuration file, agent.cfg, keeps track of each UNIX, Linux, or Mac OS X client agent installed on your system. This script is run automatically after the uagent is installed. Note: Only a system administrator can edit the Directory and File System control files. However, other users may be able to append the files, depending on the file access rights the system administrator has assigned to the file. Common Agent Configuration File for UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS X The Common Agent (caagentd binary) is a standard component for all UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS X client agents. It is installed automatically during the first installation of UNIX, Linux, or Mac OS X client agent. 36 Client Agents Guide

Client Agents Guide
The control files installed for both packages include:
Directory Control file
Use the Directory Control file, uag.cntl, to list all directories or file systems
(or both) that you want to exclude from backup operations on a workstation.
To specify directories and file systems in this file, enter a slash (/) followed
by a one line, complete path name. For example:
/opt/account1
Note:
The Directory Control file is stored on the client agent workstation in
the uagent home directory.
File System Control file
The File System Control file, fs.cntl lists the file system types on a particular
workstation that are to be excluded from backup operations. To exclude a
particular file system type, enter the type on a separate line in the fs.cntl file.
Note:
The File System file is stored on the client agent workstation in the
uagent home directory.
Browser Configuration File
The Browser Configuration file, cabr.cfg, enables raw devices to be viewed
with the browser. You must ensure that you have entered the absolute name
of the raw device on a separate line in the cabr.cfg file.
Common Agent Configuration File
The Common Agent configuration file, agent.cfg, keeps track of each UNIX,
Linux, or Mac OS X client agent installed on your system. This script is run
automatically after the uagent is installed.
Note:
Only a system administrator can edit the Directory and File System
control files. However, other users may be able to append the files, depending on
the file access rights the system administrator has assigned to the file.
Common Agent Configuration File for UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS X
The Common Agent (caagentd binary) is a standard component for all UNIX,
Linux, and Mac OS X client agents. It is installed automatically during the first
installation of UNIX, Linux, or Mac OS X client agent.
