dsm.sys include/exclude statement

[henrychen]

hi,



i'm using TSM server 5.1.1, and have / and /opt/testA as 2 separate filesystems on a machine. i have the following content in my dsm.sys:



Domain /

Domain /opt/testA



exclude /*

exclude /.../*

include /scratch/togo/*

include /scratch/togo/.../*

include /etc/Archive/*

include /etc/Archive/.../*



include /opt/testA/*

include /opt/testA/.../*

exclude /opt/testA/db/trash/*

exclude /opt/testA/db/trash/.../*



is this in the correct order/format to let me backup the contents of the /scratch/togo, /etc/Archive, /opt/testA (without db/trash) directories?



thanks!

Chanage from this:

include /opt/testA/*

include /opt/testA/.../*

exclude /opt/testA/db/trash/*

exclude /opt/testA/db/trash/.../*





To this:

exclude /opt/testA/db/trash/*

exclude /opt/testA/db/trash/.../*

include /opt/testA/*

include /opt/testA/.../*





Include/exclude are read from bottom to top.

If you are also using the GUI or the web client, check and see if there is a red mark on the directories that you do not want to backup. The directories and files that you want to backup there should be no markings.



Any changes made in the dsm.sys file need to stop and restart the schedule daemon

so that the new updates are read.



Good luck,

Sias
