Or to restate that - you can have multiple exclude lists - one for each
policy on the client.  

Just append the policy to the exclude.list its relevant for:

e.g.
POLICY SERVER-OS
POLICY SERVER-DB

In SERVER-DB you're backing all of /database/prodDB and all of
/oracle/prodDB without any excludes.

Since it has a separate policy then you set the OS policy exclude list
to exclude it (and possibly other things).  An example from one of my
Linux hosts:

exclude.list.SERVER-OS contents:

/proc
/sys
/database/prodDB
/oracle/prodDB
/mnt

In reality we create separate policies for all databases so the exclude
has /database/* and /oracle/* (we don't address other files in these
directories as there aren't supposed to be any as they are simply
supposed to be base directories for the DB specific directories.

Yes, they're on the client, but they can be limited to function on that
client for only one policy or policy & sched combo.

I think I am missing something here, aren't exclude lists client based
rather than policy based?
