Re: Exclude.dir statements
Actually correct syntax is:
exclude.dir *:\...\logcaster
Note that there should be no terminating slash at the end of the
specification.

Correct your entry. It should read
exclude.dir *:\...\logcaster\
Ideally, rather than the exclude.dir, you could exclude the files you wish
with
exclude *:\...\logcaster\...\*
This choice will allow you to backup (and restore) the directory structure
under "logcaster" without having to backup troublesome files within the
structure.

Subject: Exclude.dir statements
I want to exclude some directories from being backed up
so I can stop the
file backup failure notifications I get. So I created
the following server
client opt statement and assigned it to the options set
of this client but
it doesn't appear to be working. I don't set my client
opts in the dsm.opt
files on each client I try to make them server defined
client opts just to
have a central place to control things.
Here is the client option statement I am using but it
doesn't appear to be
working because I keep getting messages about file backup
failures for that
directory. The drive it is trying to backup is a local
drive so I don't now
why the UNC path is showing in the error log
Exclude.dir *:\...\logcaster\*
Here is the message I keep getting.

Re: Exclude.dir statements
From: Dearman, Richard [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] If I use: Exclude*:\...\logcaster\...\* Will that exclude subdirectories as well within the logcaster directory. I want to exclude everything under logcaster including files and subdirectories It will not. However, you commented that you were trying to rid yourself of file backups that failed (for whatever reason). *That*, the statement will do. Besides, if you have to restore the entire filespace, you may *want* to be able to restore directory structure. -- Mark Stapleton ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
Re: Exclude.dir statements
In addition to the recommendations of others... 1. You didn't give us the context of the "not working": if the backups involve client schedules, make sure that you restart those processes, to pick up the new client specs. 2. Always do 'dsmc query inclexcl' after making such a change, to assure that all specs are present as desired (and that the client is happy with them). Richard Sims, BU
