One possibility is that you are using an Include/Exclude list with
multiple server stanzas.  The 'inclexcl' is part of the server stanza.  If
you just put the line in once at the bottom of the dsm.sys file, it will
attach to the last server stanza and not be "seen" when you use the other
server stanzas.

Call me if you need to talk.

        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?
