Exclude Lists properties

Use the Exclude Lists properties to create and to modify the exclude lists for Windows clients. An exclude list names policies, schedules, files, and the directories to be excluded from automatic backups.

Exclude Lists properties apply only to Windows clients. On NetWare target clients, specify the exclude list when the targets are added. NetWare NonTarget clients do not support exclude lists. For more information, see the NetBackup user's guide for the client.

If more than one exclude or include list exists for a client, NetBackup uses only the most specific one.

For example, assume that a client has the following exclude lists:

An exclude list for a policy and schedule.
An exclude list for a policy.
An exclude list for the entire client. This list does not specify a policy or schedule.

In this example, NetBackup uses the first exclude list (for policy and schedule) because it is the most specific.
