Hello Kai, The exclude.dir should not affect your archives. But be aware of APAR IC31329: "EXCLUDE.DIR IS HONORED DURING AN ARCHIVE" This is fixed in the 4.2.2.1 client level.

Oh most excellent TSM'ers, who have been there and done that! Using 4.x client talking to a 4.x host: If I exclude.dir a subdirectory, can I archive files from beneath that directory and have them last? The "Using the B/A client" manual says that you can perform selective backups from underneath an excluded directory, but the files expire with the next incremental. Will archives work anyway, or do I need to set up another "node" on the same box with a complementary inclexcl list? Thanks, Kai.
