Re: [Veritas-bu] FYI on File Exclude Lists

I guess that rules out backing up clusters system nodes with
ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES and excludes for the shard disks.
Do you have an ETrack on that I can follow the status of before I
update these clients?

I just had Symantec Support confirm that
File List Exclusions broke at the 6.5.6 level of code when
backing up a MS Cluster via the Virtual Client Name.
We currently have in each clients exclude list *.mdf, *.ndf
and *.ldf to exclude all SQL database files. This would have
gone un-noticed if it was not for our DBA who created some 1.8
TB of additional SQL databases on this specfic client of the
cluster. The client was upgraded in the last month or two to
the 7.0 level. One day I happened to notice the the backup for
this client was taking longer the normal to backup. I looked
into it and noticed a ton of SQL Database files contained in
the Windows based backups. Symantec did the troubleshooting on
the issue and discovered that Client side exclude lists were
OK at the 6.5.5 level of code but stopped to function when the
client was upgraded to 6.5.6. I was able to confirm that a
client at 7.0 and 7.0.1 level of code also had the problem.
Just an FYI...
