Dave,

Directives don't work with NDMP. You should be able to use the EXCLUDE=
option in the application information field (I may be remembering the field
name wrong--it is where you set NDMP variables).
If the NetWorker docs don't have this noted, then the NetApp ones will. But
I'm pretty sure that the NetWorker ones do note this.

Subject: Directives for NetApp

I'm not having much luck getting a directive for our NetApp to work.
They're doing some testing with about 1.5 TB of data that I don't need to
back up.  The directive I've written is:

<<"/vol/Data">>
                                +skip: *

The volume in question shows up in the savegroup completion report as (node
name obfuscated):

                ourloc-nas01a:/vol/Data

What am I doing wrong?

We are running NetWorker 8.0.1.1.Build.132 on Windows Server 2012 Standard.

Thanks, Dave
