Gary - Your one recourse to protect the server would be to set the
       MAXSize on all Stgpools in your backup hierarchy to prevent
whoppers from being stored.

It sure would be nice if the Include/Exclude options were more
sophisticated, to allow selection by attributes other than name,
such as size (including avoiding backing up empty files), owner,
etc.
