We did the latter for our C & D only systems.  Just build a policy wth C, D, & system state in it & put our half dozen (about 10%) of our NT systems in it.   -M From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Spearman, David Sent: Thursday, May 11, 2006 8:45 AM To: Covington, Garrett; veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: RE: [Veritas-bu] Exclusion list Depends   If the system in question is in a policy with other systems that use all local drives/system state directives then you just want to exclude the entire drive on the client exclude list (like E:/   F:/ )  no * required. If you happened to have a file(s) on any of the excluded drives you wanted backed up you could use an include list.   On the other hand if the system is in a policy by itself just make the selections  System State, C:, D; etc.     David Spearman County of Henrico, Va. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Covington, Garrett Sent: Thursday, May 11, 2006 10:33 AM To: 'veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu' Subject: [Veritas-bu] Exclusion list I have a windows server that has a load of mounted iscsi drive letters (E:\ - X:\). None of the files on any of the drives need to be backed up except c:\, d:\ and the system state. What is the best way to exclude all drives except the ones I need? I currently have the box backing up ‘all local drives’ and have the file type that resides on each drive excluded – but it is taking an hour per drive to come back with 0 kb backed up (because all of the files are excluded)… Should I just exclude all drive letters (ie: E:\*)?? Or Maybe an include list of sorts?   Thanks,   Garrett Covington The TriZetto Group, Inc. [EMAIL PROTECTED] p: [EMAIL PROTECTED] w: 303-323-6886 c: 303-204-6695
