Thanks a lot for your explanation! I thought it had to be something like that. Do you think the 5.3 Windows Backup-Archive Clients Installation and User's Guide is clear enough about that? I tried to find the page in the manual that states that you need two include statements to get the job done.

They don't affect whether the files are backed up at all, nor do they affect management class binding. When enabled for subfile backup, all files are eligible for the subfile treatment unless you explicitly exculde them via exclude.subfile. If you are not excluding files from subfile backup processing, then you can just use include to bind the files to the desired management class. For example: include c:\myudir\*.doc mymgmtclass If you are using exclude.subfile in a way that requires you to also use include.subfile, then you'll need to use both include and include.subfile. For example: include c:\mydir\...\* mymgmtclass exclude.subfile c:\mydir\...\* include.subfile c:\mydir\...\*.doc In the above example: - all *.doc files in c:\mydir are eligible for subfile backup processing. - all other files in c:\mydir will be backed up with normal (non-subfile) processing. - all files in c:\mydir will be bound to mymgmtclass Regards, Andy Andy Raibeck IBM Software Group Tivoli Storage Manager Client Development Internal Notes e-mail: Andrew Raibeck/Tucson/[EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] IBM Tivoli Storage Manager support web page: http://www-306.ibm.com/software/sysmgmt/products/support/IBMTivoliStorageManager.html The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
