In 5.1.5, you could code a domain statement like this:

   DOMAIN ALL-LOCAL -SYSTEMOBJECT

In versions below 5.1.5, you need to take the more "brute force approach"
of specifying the file systems you wish to back up. For example, the
following DOMAIN statement in dsm.opt will do this:

   DOMAIN C: D: E:

How would you exclude the systemobject from a scheduled backup?

Does TSM 4.2.2 Client (on 4.2.1.9 on AIX server) support 'exclude
systemobject' in the dsm.opt file?
or conversley will exclude.dir adsm.sys do the trick?

Starting with V5.1.5.0, you can now exclude the systemobjects from backup
-
you do not have to specifically set this in the domain. For example, if
you
had local drives C:. D:, and E: you could do an incremental backup on the
local drives, but not the windows systemobjects, by specifying

         dsmc inc -domain=-systemobject

TSM V5.1.5.0 is GA 10/11/2002.
