Herve:

According to ADSM documentation, directory entries, are always backed up,
ignoring include/exclude statements.
As I could see before, I am under the impression that directory entries are
assigned to the management class defined in the last place in your domain;
anyway, you should confirm that.
I tried with EXCLUDEDIR statement, but it only works with files, not with
directory entries.
