Hi everyone!

How have you been?  I hope you don't mind me contacting you, but if you do
please don't hesitate to say so.  I was just wondering if you have any
management classes set up in your environment with a copy frequency?  I am
trying to set up a management class for a backup copy group that will only
backup files every 7 days.  I made the following management class:


 Policy Domain Name                   DESKTOP

 Policy Set Name                      STANDARD

 Mgmt Class Name                      SQL_DB

 Copy Group Name                      STANDARD

 Versions Data Exists                 7

 Versions Data Deleted                3

 Retain Extra Versions                30

 Retain Only Version                  90

 Copy Mode                            MODIFIED

 Copy Serialization                   DYNAMIC

 Copy Frequency                       6

 Copy Destination                     SPACEMGPOOL

 Last Update Date/Time                2003-04-23 10:20:06.000000

 Last Update by (administrator)       LIDZR8V





Here is the domain that it is in:

 Policy Domain Name         DESKTOP

 Policy Set Name            STANDARD

 Mgmt Class Name            SQL_DB

 Default Mgmt Class ?       No

 Description                Backs up SQL DB Once
                            a Week

 Space Management Technique NONE

 Auto-Migrate on Non-Use    0

 Migration Requires Backup? YES

 Migration Destination      SPACEMGPOOL

 Last Update Date/Time      2003-04-16
                            11:21:42.000000

Here is the include/exclude list on the client:
Exclude "*:\microsoft uam volume\*"
Exclude "*:\microsoft uam volume\*.*"
Exclude "*:\microsoft uam volume\...\*"
Exclude "*:\microsoft uam volume\...\*.*"
Exclude "*:\...\EA DATA. SF"
Exclude *:\...\pagefile.sys
Exclude *:\IBMBIO.COM
Exclude *:\IBMDOS.COM
Exclude *:\MSDOS.SYS
Exclude *:\IO.SYS
Exclude *:\...\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\*.*
Exclude *:\...\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\...\*
* Exclude E:\MSSQL\BACKUP\*.BAK
*Exclude F:\MSSQL\BACKUP\*.BAK
Exclude F:\MSSQL\AELITA\*.MDF
Exclude F:\MSSQL\AELITA\*.LDF
Exclude E:\MSSQL\DATA\*.MDF
Exclude E:\MSSQL\DATA\*.LDF
Include F:\MSSQL\Backup\*.BAK SQL_DB

I have validated and activated the domain.  From my point of view this
should work, but it hasn't.  Any suggestions?
