a warning, from experience.
Make sure you have a written policy that you are enforcing, when blanket
exlcuding files like that.
The p**p hit the fan at a previous employer......but there was a policy,
so it ended up being cool in the end.

All it takes is on exec, director, VP, etc, who has a digital audio
recorder in his PDA for taking notes, reminders, etc. in .wav or .mp3
format to ruin your day.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Exclude files in NDMP backup



        I'm trying to exclude certain files from being backup to tape.
We are using NDMP to backup our NetApp FAS940c, I have set the following
"SET EXCLUDE =3D *.mp3, *.avi, *.mpg, *.mpeg, *.mov, *.wmv" in the =
backup
selections.  When executing the policy, I receive the error, "Warning
bptm(pid=3D3004) WRN - Discarding SET line "SET EXCLUDE =3D *.mp3, =
*.avi,
*.mpg, *.mpeg, *.mov, *.wmv" due to parsing error #2"  We are running
NetBackup 5.1MP3. =20
