Try something other than *.* - it may be that this is matching all your
directory names also -  maybe if you just have +null  *.mdf *.ldf *.ndf

in index

Hi,
 
I have a problem with a particular SQL server backup.
 
I would like to skip the contents of the drives which contain the SQL
database and logs, but would like to keep the directory structure in the
NetWorker index if possible. This would mean that in a recovery
situation, I would be able to get back an empty directory structure for
the DBA to recover his export file back into.
 
I thought that "null" would do this for me so put in place a directive
like this....
 
<< "R:\" >>
 +null: *.*
<< "S:\" >>
 +null: *.*
 
but it seems no better than when I was using +skip.
 
I would imagine that I could achieve this by having a directive that
listed each directory with a skip for each one, but am hoping that I'm
missing something and that there is a much simpler solution!
 
Many Thanks,
Neil
