Can you change the user-directed backup to a scheduled one? You could
create a policy & filelist & exclude file. Then use the "bpsched -IB
-policy <policyname>" call to initiate a "scheduled" backup on demand.
Otherwise, I think you're about to get creative with scripting to exclude
the filesystems - writing a wrapper that generates a filelisting somehow,
excluding these filesystems, then calling bpbackup for the remaing
filesystems.
I don't know if the "!filename" form works for bpbackup or not.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Exclude lists
Is there any way to do an exclude list for a user directed backup?
Here is the situation:
I have 2 servers that are backed up via a 3rd party scheduler.
These 2 servers are Oracle servers and I need to exclude /mounpointA/oradata
and backup /mountpointB/orabackup.
The 3rd party scheduler runs a bpbackup command that calls a specific file
list.
The filesystems are (for the most part) broken out with the Oracle data
being on filesystems 1-40 and Oracle backups being on 41-60.
The issue is that some of the oradata filesystems have things other than
just oradata there ...
/mountpt/oradata
/mountpt/test
test would need to be backed up, where oradata would need to be excluded.
So, the question is... Can I do an exclude list for a user backup? Or do I
need to explicitly state "/mountpt/test" in the files to backup list
associated with the user backup?
TIA and sorry if this is hard to follow...
