Sebastian,
Thanks for the information. I will try that on one of the clients to start with.
As we are getting so many warnings I normally just look for errors in the report. After paying a little more attention to the messages it looks like my understanding of a mount point and data protectors understanding of a mount point are a little different. If I do a "df" on my Redhat server I get the following.
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/vg_xxxxxxxx-lv_root 44902840 6671156 35944068 16% /
tmpfs 4030724 0 4030724 0% /dev/shm
/dev/sda1 487652 99330 362722 22% /boot
My assumption was that "/", "/dev/shm" and "/boot" were my 3 mount points. However data protector is giving me a warning on every folder under the root folder like "proc", "sbin", "selinux", "usr" and "var". Does this imply that nothing is actually being backed up.
