Cheers M have tried this I can confirm that it does work.
Set up a policy to backup /app/site (contains many sub-directories files)
Set up an exclude list for same of /app/site/*/
Ran backup checked that only files within /app/site NOT sub-directories
were backed up.
Many thanks for the
Thanks, I should have been clearer sorry. I know how to do it in an exclude
list but that is global to the client. What I am trying to do is separate
subfolders into one stream and root files into another.
When is Symantec going to have per policy or per stream excludes?
For this level of effort, it's the same to create two policies to reach
your goal. You can get the streams and use the excludes to filter out what
you don't want.

Per policy excludes are implemented already. Have been since at least
v3.
Client Global: /usr/openv/netbackup/exclude_list
Policy (all scheds): /usr/openv/netbackup/exclude_list.policyname
Policy Sched:
/usr/openv/netbackup/exclude_list.policyname.schedname

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

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

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.
Hmm... it would appear I have more reading to do.
Thanks,

Is there an exclude.list file on a Windows client? I can't find it.

I thought the excludes in the registry were also global, how do I add ones to
the reg that are tied to a certain policy or schedule?

But the excludes are created from the Backup Archive Restore GUI on the
client.
You can create the policy and/or schedule granular excludes here as well.
Remember that NetBackup will only read one exclude list. What I'm getting
at is if you have a global (to the client) and policy and scheudule
Use the client settings app in the Administration Console or the Backup
and Archive GUI on the client to specify exclusion, policy and schedules
to apply to. I wouldn't recommend updating this manually in the
registry.

Edit it via client properties on the gui.

NB recurses by default. It's hard to stop.
You'd have to do this by using an exclude file on the client, I suspect.
If your filelist includes:
/top/dir_to_backup
You might try to exclude
/top/dir_to_backup/*/
That might do it. I've never tried it, though. Make sure the trailing
slash is
17 matches
