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. Since it has a separate policy then you set the OS policy exclude list to exclude it (and possibly other things). An example from one of my Linux hosts: exclude.list.SERVER-OS contents: /proc /sys /database/prodDB /oracle/prodDB /mnt In reality we create separate policies for all databases so the exclude has /database/* and /oracle/* (we don't address other files in these directories as there aren't supposed to be any as they are simply supposed to be base directories for the DB specific directories. -----Original Message----- From: veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu [mailto:veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu] On Behalf Of Donaldson, Mark Sent: Thursday, June 11, 2009 1:53 PM To: VERITAS-BU@MAILMAN.ENG.AUBURN.EDU Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] Backup all files in a folder but not any subfolders Yes, they're on the client, but they can be limited to function on that client for only one policy or policy & sched combo. -----Original Message----- From: veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu [mailto:veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu] On Behalf Of dbergen Sent: Thursday, June 11, 2009 11:51 AM To: VERITAS-BU@MAILMAN.ENG.AUBURN.EDU Subject: [Veritas-bu] Backup all files in a folder but not any subfolders I think I am missing something here, aren't exclude lists client based rather than policy based? +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by dber...@cucbc.com via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu _______________________________________________ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu Please consider our environment before printing this e-mail or attachments. ---------------------------------- CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This e-mail may contain privileged or confidential information and is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s).
