I got it.
In AIX, the include/exclude seems not base on the directory structure. It is
base on filesystem.
In my include/exclude file, if I exclude the filesystem. It will work fine.
like:
    exclude.fs /home
    exclude.fs /usr
    exclude.fs /

If I mount a filesystem "mytest" to /home/test, and in the include/exclude file
I wrote: "exclude /home/.../*" ,  it will not exclude the filesystem "mytest" .
To exclude the filesystem, I should use :"exclude.fs /home/mytest" .

Thank.
