Do you have the dsm.opt in the right directory? I got nailed by this. It must be in the bin directory. Or are you using a CLIENT Option Set?
-----Original Message----- From: Glass, Peter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 04, 2002 6:45 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: exclude syntax frustration TSM seems to ignore our exclude statements, no matter which wildcard syntax we use. For example, we have filesystems called /db1/oracle, /db2/oracle, etc. through /db30/oracle that we want to exclude. We've tried: exclude /db[1-30]/oracle/.../* and exclude /db*/oracle/.../* and exclude /.../oracle/.../* without success: in each case, the backups still try to backup the files under these directories. The backups usually fail to pick up the files, because the files change during the backup, which is why we want to exclude them. Are we misunderstanding how wildcards are supposed to work with exclude statements? Or is this a product bug?
