hi all,
a short one

in

exclude "*:/.../nohup.out*"

what does *: mean ?

and then with dsmc q inclexcl

*** FILE INCLUDE/EXCLUDE ***

thanks in advance ?

The : is the drive delimiter.
The *: means any drive.
But, nohup.out is probably a file on a UNIX based computer and drive
letters don't really make sense.

Hope this helps,
