Changes to the Exclude List While Backup is Running

Hello All,

I have a question as to when Netbackup consults the client's exclude list when performing a backup. Is it just at first or is it using it throughout the duration of the backup. I assume it is just checked at first but wanted to make sure. The reason is because I need to perform a cold database bakup so I need to remove the entry excluding .dbf files. I want to make sure that it gets added back in and was curious as to whether I should wait until the backup completes or if I can re-add the entry after the backup has kicked off but before it finishes. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
