WINDOWS servers exclude list

Hello Team,

I have a down window servers which I am tasked to provide existing exclude list prior the window server crashing down. Since server is down, "bpgetconfig" is unable to retrieve these information. Does anyone have any alternate route I can retrieve this information? Thanks

  • AFAIK it's a client-side only setting.  You could try restoring the registry from that backup to a dummy VM that you are willing to loose and then checking after the restore completes - but I have no idea whether this would actually work or not.

      Thank you so much. That does the trick. 

      I still think veritas  should provide alternate way to retrieve this info from the db without needing to perform restore.

        Exclude list needs to be stored locally on each client - it is checked after bpbkar process is started.

        There is no reason why this should be stored in the NBU databases on the master.
