Guiseppe,

This is the syntax we use on our NetWare clients.  We are running TSM 4.1.  
Remember that the exclude statements are processed from the bottom up.  These 
statements exclude most of the system files and logs that don't need to be 
backed up.    I hope this helps!

EXCLUDE servername\*:/.../vol$log.err
EXCLUDE servername*:/.../tts$log.err
EXCLUDE servername*:/.../sys$log.err
EXCLUDE servername*:/.../events.log
EXCLUDE servername*:/.../secaudit.log
EXCLUDE servername*:/.../system.log
EXCLUDE servername*:/.../net$obj.sys
EXCLUDE servername*:/.../net$prop.sys
EXCLUDE servername*:/.../net$val.sys
EXCLUDE servername\sys:system/cmaster.dba
EXCLUDE servername\sys:system/btrieve.trn
EXCLUDE servername\sys:system/tsa/tsa$temp.*
EXCLUDE servername\sys:system/tsa/err$log.*
EXCLUDE servername\sys:system/tsa/skip$log.*
EXCLUDE servername\sys:system/tsa/err$hst.*
EXCLUDE servername\sys:_SWAP_.MEM
exclude.dir servername\sys:\queues

I've problem to understand which is the correct sintax to use for exclude 
directory or files in Novell platform version 4 or 5 with TSM 4.1 .


Is there anybody that can explain me  how to do it?


                                                                                
        thank you very much in advance
