Some of the documentation appears to not be platform specific, which causes
ambiguity and problems. The first include (include * managall) would be
appropriate for a Unix system. I'm not sure it is appropriate for a Windows
system. The second example is clearly for a Unix system (because it has the
':' in it). But note that second example uses a "?" to wildcard the volume,
and not a "*". I suspect that TSM is coded to not allow a "*" wildcard for
matching a Windows drive letter, since it must be exactly one character. But
I've yet to find anything in the manual that states this.
I suppose it would be easy enough to test this theory...
