His reply is that there IS a way to do it by policy.   You need to reread what 
he wrote.

 

The way you originally phrased your question it sounded like you wanted one 
exclude list that worked for all policies.   Your restatement sounds like you 
one an exclude for EACH policy.   His reply told you how to do it either way.

Yes, I was looking to see if there was some way to create an exclude list per 
policy, but as I suspected it doesn't sound like there is. Thanks!

You need to create the exclude list on the client.

if each client is only backed up by one policy, you can just call it 
"exclude_list", but if the client is backed up by more than one policy, you 
need to call it exlcude_list.POLICY_NAME.

 

I'm not sure if that's what you're asking, or if you're asking how to somehow 
specify from the master/policy, to backup "ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES but not C and 
System_State:\" which you cannot.

        Is there a way to setup an exclusion list for an entire policy? 
Currently we are using the directive ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES to backup our clients. 
However, we'd like to exclude C:\ and system state information as we don't 
perform bare metal restores in our environment, but want to ensure we backup 
all the "data" drives. What makes it difficult is that in our environment there 
is no standard, so one system might have only a D:\ drive, while another system 
might have a D:\, E:\, and F:\ drive. Being able to use ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES and 
excluding C:\ and system state would be helpful.

         

        Thanks in advanced!
