Check out the incl/excl section in the manual. There is a special note about excluding files and using the journal and using the tsmjbbd.ini. Also, as far as memory is concerned, The TSM client still scans and considers everything in those directories unless exclude.dir is used. exclude.dir is more memory friendly.

Oops - spoke too soon. Thought I had gone all the way through the dsmsched log. I do see the "\Temp" files being "expired". Plus another issue. I added a line to exclude other files in a directory called "Temporary ASP.NET Files" which are being backed up.

Sent by: "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU> Zoltan, OK... so can we see a complete Q INCLEXCL output for the node? Also, what happens if you try to manually back up data in a temp directory? Does it back them up? Or do you see messages that indicate the files are excluded? dsmc s "C:\Documents and Settings\wshuart\Local Settings\Temp\*" -su=y I would expect if the excludes are properly set up, you'll see messages indicating the files are excluded.
