I first tried the following, per the NW documentation, which
didn't work - i.e., everything was backed up:

  directive:\
  "<< /vol/vol0/home/buildusr >>
        skip: builds
        skip: distributions
        skip: distributions-test
        skip: shipments";

You're certain the directive is associated with the client instance that
is invoked during the backup?

Yes.

/vol/vol0 looks a lot like a Netapp path.  Are you doing an NDMP backup
or are you doing an NFS mount backup?

NDMP

I don't think directives are honored by NDMP backups,

Bummer, because it's a block level transfer?
