Subject: Cleint option sets


Hi,

We are still having problems with options sets. This is on WindowsNT,
client version 3.1.0.3 to an AIX server version 3.1.1.2. I intend to
open a call with IBM about this, but thought that I would see if anyone
else is seeing the problem first.

I have set up an option set and associated it with a node. None of the
options inside the option set appear to be used. For example, I have the
following inclexcl lines:

Inclexcl exclude c:\....\*
Inclexcl include c:\temp\*.log

If I run an incremental backup of C:, all files are backed up. I have
verified that all other options are being ignored by using the Q OPTION
command from the client.

Am I doing something wrong, or are options sets still seriously broken?
