If you're using an "ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES" designation for the backup list, in my 
experience, it'll spawn a job for this drive, then apply the exclusion list, 
and backup an empty (32K) image.  Is there any data in your image?

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Odd Problem with Exclusion List on Master


I ran into something odd this morning on my NBU Master Server.

We run disk staging backups, so I have a mapped drive on the Master that
is the staging volume, drive F.  In the client properties for my Master,
I have an Exclusion List Entry F:\.  What I found this morning is that
my Master was trying to backup the F: drive to itself.

Why is the exclusion list being overridden?  It's set to apply to <<All
Policies>> and <<All Schedules>>.  Should it be applied to particular
Policies/Schedules?

Thanks,
Jason
