Problem
exclude_list does not apply
Error Message
no error reported
Cause
include_list and exclude_list does not apply to USER type Backup Schedule
I can't question the user's decision to backup Oracle items with a standard policy - it's not my decision...
What I wanted to know is what kind of excludes can be defined for a job type UBAK, and the answer seems to be: none.
Thanks for your replies and help

It seems we have been through this already, right?

I have replied the following in that discussion:
As per this TN: https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.TECH157529
you are correct. exclude_list won't work.
The only other option is to use wilcards in the file list to ensure only required files are backed up.
PS:
I am still curious to know if file-level backup of control files outside of rman will be any good when restored...
The TN is very clear:
exclude_list does not apply
no error reported
include_list and exclude_list does not apply to USER type Backup Schedule
