Hi Joost,

open a dos session and type the following

c:\dos > dsmc
dsmc> q inclexcl

this command show you which include/exclude rules TSM has undestood in your
dsm.opt file
is not ok, check the DSM_CONFIG env var

then open the registry and check the parameter for 'TSM scheduler' service
HLKM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\TSM Scheduler

If the dsm.opt file used by the service is correct, then your rules in
dsm.opt are not.

Send me your dsm.opt

Good luck
