About excluding files that are always
open
On desktop computers running Windows XP/2000, the
following folders and file types are generally always open and DLO
is unable to back them up:
-
C:\Windows\System32\Config
-
registry hives and logs, including *.DAT.LOG, *.LOG
and the files system, SECURITY, default, SAM, and software
-
C:\Windows\System32\wbem
-
*.EVT
-
*.LOG (in particular, STI_Trace.log, WIADEBUG.LOG,
WIASERVC.LOG)
-
*.DAT (in particular, NTUSER.DAT, USRCLASS.DAT)
To prevent these files
from always being listed in the pending files list on the Desktop
Agent, add them to the Global Excludes list or the backup selection
exclude list.
See About backup selections in
DLO.

global exclude filters in DLO.
