Hi
Not knowing much about Linux clients, my guess would be, to exclude certain
roots or folders, you would goto the properties of the client and add then
in the exclude list.
 
I would think this is done on the master, under host properties / clients
and/or the client itself.
 
This is what I would do if excluding certain do. I assume you have stopped /
restarted all relevant netbackup services for changes to take affect?
 
Now I did read somewhere that on 5.1, NBU has a problem with EXCLUDING
folders on certain clients, and I think (??) this may have been fixed in
MP4. Not sure if this will help the problem, but wanted to share in case
anyone could clarify this.
 
Finally, may be worth a look at this

<http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/277121.htm> 
 
Hope its of some help - trying to assist where I can really! My other
feeling was, maybe there is a Command line that can be used to verify if the
exclude list is either there or in effect
Thanks

Hi all,
I'm on NB 5.1 - I have 2 Linux clients(util1 and util2 ) under a policy and
with the following filelist
/export
/root
/home
/etc
/var
/u/d01
/usr
/lib
All I need is to exclude /u/d01 , /usr and /lib from one of the clients
(util2) - I created a exclude list on util2 as follows -
[root@util2 netbackup]#  cat exclude_list
/usr
/lib
/u/d01
But NB still is backing up the above 3 dir's on util2 - Any idea y?
Thanks in advance..
Smitha
