It seems that /dev is excluded on all of our Linux clients (but not
Solaris or AIX)
The directory doesn't even show in the GUI when attempting a backup.
(Normally if it is excluded, it is listed, but with an "X").  However a
command line backup of /dev does work.    The q inclexcl doesn't show
anything excluded.
On Windows, a "q inclexcl" shows the OS excluded files, but nothing on
linux.  Does anyone know a list of what is excluded and how?

Client: 5.5.1 on Linux

a "dsmc q inclexcl" shows:

*** FILE INCLUDE/EXCLUDE ***
Mode Function  Pattern (match from top down)  Source File
---- --------- ------------------------------ -----------------
No exclude filespace statements defined.
Excl Directory /.../.TsmCacheDir              TSM
No include/exclude statements defined.
No DFS include/exclude statements defined.


PS The $LANG is set to en_US, so it's not a character limitation thing
