Hi Kevin! I know that it reads bottom up, so your solution will not work. If you code:
exclude.fs * include.fs /home include.fs /usr It will first encounter the includes and then the exclude all, so It will not backup anything. TSM processes all include/excludes, it wil not exit as soon as a match has been found.

That should do it since it reads from the bottom up, and uses the first match it comes to. -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Loon, E.J. van - SPLXM Sent: Tuesday, April 20, 2004 8:26 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Exclude on AIX Hi *SM-ers! One of our AIX guys wants to exclude all filespaces and then include specific others. We have tried the following: include.fs /home include.fs /usr exclude.fs * But that doesn't work. I don't know how to accomplish this. Because they want to use our standard way for excluding files (include-exclude file) using the domains statement is not an option. Can someone please help us here? Thank you very much in advance!
