it's my understanding that it's whatever the client would support
normally.
since you can't go to a windows box and type "dir [a-m]*", you can't use
this type of wildcarding with NBU on a Windows client... although it would
work on another type of client, like unix.

Subject: RE: [Veritas-bu] Wildcards
I am really trying to accomplish an understanding of how the wildcards
behave.
My testing has not provided that answer yet.
Are you saying that you do not use wildcards because they do not behave
well/properly?

What are you trying to accomplish.
I have steered away from wildcards for this specific reason.
I have classes like this
/home/brs/
/home/seg
etc....

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Wildcards
I am quite net to NBU and I am having a problem using wildcards.
I have been experimenting by running back ups on the server's home
directory.
I have been running file lists like:
/home
/home*
/home/
/home/*
/home/*/*
....etc.......
I am not seeing consistent results. Sometimes files are getting backed
up; others not.
I cannot find a "smoking gun" answer in the documentation.
If anyone could shed some light on how the wildcards are supposed to
behave, I would appreciate it.
