What OS and what agent version? Win7 with agent 6.1.3.2 does not backup the USB key that I plugged in unless I add the drive letter to the domain all-local statement.

Is there a way to exclude backup of USB drives on Windows clients? Of course if you know the drive letter you can! I am having more cases of these being used and with most of my clients being set to DOMAIN ALL-LOCAL, when somebody inserts one of these things, I back it up - or try to. If I changed to specifying individual drives, this would cause more problems as many servers get drive config changes and adds, and I would have to keep up with them - or miss something. Wondered if there is a trick to blanket exclude USB drives. Saw nothing in the Manuals. Thanks, David Longo ##################################### This message is for the named person's use only.
