exclude.backup /directory/.../* This would exclude files from backup but not prevent archives. Unfortunately it does not exclude the directories.
Zlatko Krastev IT Consultant Please respond to "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Subject: Unix directory exclude question We are running a scheduled "incremental" on an AIX 4.3.3 client. There is a need to exclude a specific directory tree, which needs to be "archived" via another, shell script based, scheduled "command". The initial idea was to add an "exclude.dir" in the client dsm.sys file. This caused the incremental to exclude that directory tree but, when performing the command line (dsmc) archive the log indicates that this tree is excluded. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks, Dave ADT Security Services
