I should know this but I'm not getting far  ......

A client is setting up virtual clients to backup 'cluster packages' in the
Solaris/HP world.

The intention in the 'inclexcl' file is to  :-

         exclude * ,
        then interrogate the Veritas resource group and include only the
filesystem's required.

This will work fine in the cluster packages, but the cluster owning nodes
need to backup the  O/S which will include /

How do I code the statement to include just the root filesystem.
If I code  :
        exclude *
        include /.../

It will backup all  files  in other mounted f/systems eg /opt /var. Is this
distinct to Solaris????, as I seem to remember AIX not walking the f/s
tree's in this manner.

I have tried
*       include /.../* which on Solaris seems to pick all mount points under
/..
 and
*       include  //.../* which expires all backup drirectly under /

We do not want to use the domain statement, as this means revisiting the
dsm.sys file, which will contain multiple server stanzas for logical
clients.

TIA.
