How to exclude a drive from reporting/alerting

How do I exclude a drive from being reported as being 'at risk'? We have quite a few servers with drives that we dont back up - test/dev servers where we only backup the C Drive. In previous versions of BESR we could exclude the drive from reporting. I cannot see how to do it in 2010?

Open the console and go to Advanced. Then right-click on the volume and select 'Customize Status Reporting'.

Blinky,

Do you use BESR-MS? If so, this can be done centrally; you just need to create a volume alert policy and apply it to the clients.
