Hi David, I've seen similar problems in NBU 5.1, what I usually do is mark all tapes in scratch pool and delete them, then do a new inventory of library and place new tapes in scratch pool. My experience is that for some reason tapes that have expired but is not located in the library due to

[Veritas-bu] Backup all files in a folder but not any subfolders

Thanks, I should have been clearer sorry. I know how to do it in an exclude list but that is global to the client. What I am trying to do is separate subfolders into one stream and root files into another. When is Symantec going to have per policy or per stream excludes?

Re: [Veritas-bu] Backup all files in a folder but not any subfolders

For this level of effort, it's the same to create two policies to reach your goal. You can get the streams and use the excludes to filter out what you don't want. Rusty Major, MCSE, BCFP, VCS ▪ Sr. Storage Engineer ▪ SunGard Availability Services ▪ 757 N. Eldridge Suite 200, Houston TX 77079 ▪

Or to restate that - you can have multiple exclude lists - one for each policy on the client. Just append the policy to the exclude.list its relevant for: e.g. POLICY SERVER-OS POLICY SERVER-DB In SERVER-DB you're backing all of /database/prodDB and all of /oracle/prodDB without any excludes.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Backup all files in a folder but not any subfolders

But the excludes are created from the Backup Archive Restore GUI on the client. You can create the policy and/or schedule granular excludes here as well. Remember that NetBackup will only read one exclude list. What I'm getting at is if you have a global (to the client) and policy and scheudule
