Hi,

EXCLUDE.DIR *:\RESTORE
To leave all of it or
EXCLUDE *:\RESTORE\...\*
To get the dir info, but not the files

Regards,

Karel

Subject: Exclude did not work

Hello,

There was a restore done yesterday and a exclude statement was put in
the opt.file to exclude the directory. But the directory was backed up
inspite of the exclude statement that was put in.

This is the entry in the DSM.OPT file:
EXCLUDE *:\RESTORE\*

The DSMSCHED.LOG lists the files as follows:
POA:/restore/cohq/......

The opposite slants to the slashes shouldn't matter because the examples
in the DSM.OPT are all backward leaning slashes.

Maybe it doesn't accept a wildcard (*) for the volume name? Maybe the
trailing * doesn't exclude the subdirectories?

looking through the manuals I decided I am going put in the following in
the opt.file. Can anyone verify this syntax is correct.

exclude.dir *:RESTORE
