Symantec Backup Exec

When you create a backup job, you can do the following:

• Select specific directories to include in the backup job.

• Select specific directories and files to exclude from the backup job.

Table: What you can include and exclude for NDMP backup selections

The following limitations apply when you select NDMP resources from the main resource selection area instead of from the Include/Exclude Selections dialog box:

• You can include entire volumes for any NDMP provider.

• You can include subfolders for NetApp/IBM/Fujitus providers only.

• You cannot exclude files or directories. You must use the Include/Exclude Selections dialog box to exclude NDMP resources from a backup job.

• For providers other than NetApp/IBM/Fujitsu and EMC, Backup Exec uses the “Other” provider that was selected last on either the NDMP settings on the Backup Job Properties dialog box or the Include/Exclude Selections dialog box. If no previous selections exist on those dialog boxes, then Backup Exec uses the default NDMP settings from Tools > Options.
