Hi all.

I've got a client option set defined on the server for my UNIX clients.
The include-exclude specifications fulfill most everything I need.  However
there are some UNIX clients which have a few special case needs.   As such
these boxes have a local inclexcl file specified in the dsm.sys.  I've had
no luck with getting a combined list to function correctly on the client.
Per the manuals, FORCE/OVERRIDE have no affect in multi line specifications
such as includes/excludes.

Here's the server cloptset (server level 4.1.4):

INCLEXCL                             0           No     include /.../* unix
INCLEXCL                             1           No     include
/BACKTRACK*:*/.../* sqlback
INCLEXCL                             2           No     include /pipe/.../*
adsmpipe
INCLEXCL                             3           No     include
/ora*/oradata/.../* oracle
INCLEXCL                             4           No     include
/oraarc*/.../* oracle
INCLEXCL                             5           No     include
/oraexp/.../* oracle
INCLEXCL                             6           No     exclude
/.../tmp/.../*
INCLEXCL                             7           No     exclude
/.../.sh_history

output from q inclexcl (client level 4.2.1) with an empty local
include-exclude list:


*** FILE INCLUDE/EXCLUDE ***
Mode Function  Pattern (match from top down)  Source File
---- --------- ------------------------------ -----------------
No exclude filespace statements defined.
No exclude filespace statements defined.
No exclude directory statements defined.
Excl All       /.../.sh_history               Server
Excl All       /.../tmp/.../*                 Server
Incl All       /oraexp/.../*                  Server
Incl All       /oraarc*/.../*                 Server
Incl All       /ora*/oradata/.../*            Server
Incl All       /BACKTRACK*:*/.../*            Server
Incl All       /.../*                         Server
No DFS include/exclude statements defined.


Now here's my local include-exclude file contents:

Exclude /adsmchi/.../*
Exclude /fixdist/.../*


And then the output of the q inclexcl again:

*** FILE INCLUDE/EXCLUDE ***
Mode Function  Pattern (match from top down)  Source File
---- --------- ------------------------------ -----------------
No exclude filespace statements defined.
No exclude filespace statements defined.
No exclude directory statements defined.
Excl All       /.../.sh_history               Server
Excl All       /.../tmp/.../*                 Server
Incl All       /oraexp/.../*                  Server
Incl All       /oraarc*/.../*                 Server
Incl All       /ora*/oradata/.../*            Server
Incl All       /BACKTRACK*:*/.../*            Server
Incl All       /.../*                         Server
Excl All       /fixdist/.../*                 /etc/adsm/inclexcl.list
Excl All       /adsmchi/.../*                 /etc/adsm/inclexcl.list
No DFS include/exclude statements defined.

So my question is since this list is processed top down,  how will I ever
exclude the last two dirs?   The only way I can see this would work is to
remove the include /.../* line (sequence 0) on the server cloptset and make
the mgmtclass it points to (unix) the default.  Is there another way?


Comments?

Sorry for the length of the posting.


Confused!
