Hi all, I have a customer that i setup new_stream backups that works great, but one folder have subfolders growing large and i want to make a new stream for that folder, so my question is does netbackup exclude the top new_stream?
So if i should add
NEW_STREAM
E:\ProgramData\Folder
is dosent interfer with my NEW_STREAM E:\ProgrmData\ ? eg dubbel backups!?
Bellow is my policy

it does backup double . and its not because of the NEW_Stream entry.
its becasue of the Directry structure
E:\ProgramData includes all the files and folder below of that...
even you add the one more stream E:\ProgramData\Folder , it includes twice.
once in E:\ProgramData\Folder
another time in E:\ProgramData
the best option that you have is to make use of exclude list.
policy 1 add the selection E:\ProgramData and create a exclude list as exclude_list.policy1 and keep the entry E:\ProgramData\Folder
policy 2 add the backup selection as E:\ProgramData\Folder make a backup.

but if i would do this
policy1 add e:\programdata\ and exclude list in (host properties,windows client,exclude list) it will exclude the same for policy 2 (same client)
so can i exclude per policy som how?

nevermind! I figured it out, in the droplist of exclude list i only got "all policies" but when i typed the policy manualy it worked. I thougt it should show me my polices that my client where in.
thx ill give it a try now!
