Re: [Veritas-bu] Excludes for FlashBackup-Windows

Exceptions to an exclude list is also known as an include list.

For example, if you want to Exclude the entire D: drive, but you want to backup D:\backup directory, your exclude list would have D:\ and then your Include (or Exception to Exclude) list would have D:\Backup.

I can't help with why excludes are intermittent for you, though I would double check they are all setup properly, right policy, spelling, etc.

Hope that makes sense.

Folks,

I am trying to figure out why some of my Windows FlashBackup clients have their excludes ignored and others don’t. I was under the impression that you can have exclusions even when using FlashBackup. I noticed the following statement in the Advanced Client Sys Admin guide – “FlashBackup-Windows policies do not support exceptions to client exclude lists.” I’m not sure what “exceptions to exclude lists” are. I am running 5.1 MP6 on my clients.
