Hi Jim!
Probably because you haven't stopped and started the scheduler service after
adding the exclude statement?
Kindest regards,

Subject: Include/Exclude issue


I have added exclude statements in my dsm.opt file to exclude the dat files
in my Windows2000 Profiles. The syntax of my exclude statement is:



EXCLUDE "d:\...\*.dat"



When I open the GUI on the client and look at the files under the backup
selection, it shows that the files are excluded from backup.



The problem is that TSM is generating errors with our normally scheduled
backups saying that it cannot backup these files because they are in use by
another process.



Why would TSM attempt to be backing up files I've specifically excluded.



Thanks,



Jim Jelf
