All,

I've searched the archives of this list for help already and read the man
pages on uasm and nsr_directive, but, finding nothing that answered my
question, I'm relegated to posting here (and resulting jeering from the
audience, maybe.  :-)

For a given UNIX client, I wish to skip from any filesystem the contents
of any directory called "oradata" at any level.  While logic would tell me
to use this:

<< / >>
       +skip:  oradata

I'm seeing lots of hefty ./oradata/filename.dbf files being backed up,
which tells me this isn't working.

Since it's also occurred to me that what we're *really* trying to do is
avoid backing up active *.dbf files anyway, I could use

<< / >>
      +skip: *.dbf

but I'd like comments nonetheless.  TIA,
-ty
