Installing certain applications will add partitions to a DR saveset that 
you may not expect to be added (such as when Lotus Notes added the 
partition with it's mail store as a "system critical" partition, meaning 
that it is included in the DR saveset, separate from any normal saveset, 
such as those you get with an ALL directive).
