Assuming '/export/home' is your sharename, it should look like this:
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = {
'/export/home' => [
'/xyz'
],
'/export/home' => [
'/abc'
]
};
This sets the exclusion specifically for the '/export/home' share. If
you want it to apply to all shares, or if you only have one share and
want to cut down on typing, you can use '*' instead of the sharename.
