Correct. The latter is what I am doing, although I aren't doing the exclude as I haven't tested a restore yet, so I actually back up two copies of Exchange. Once the bacula plugin logic has matured a bit more, the plugin will know which physical disk files it backed up and will be able to tell bacula not to back those up, without needing an Exclude. Are you sure your Exclude with a wildcard in it is valid? I was never sure about that...
