Exclude and Include Options
Exclude
Include
Whenever you perform a custom backup or restore, you can use the exclude
and include options to select subsets of what you want to back up.
Whether you use exclude or include usually depends on the size of the data
you want to back up, compared to the size of the data you do not want to back
up.
To back up most of the file system structure or eDirectory tree structure while
omitting only a small part, use the exclude option to omit the part you do not
want to back up. Everything that you do not specifically exclude is included.
After you exclude part of the structure such as a volume, directory, or
container, you cannot include any subdirectories, files, or objects beneath that
excluded volume, directory, or container.
To back up a small part of the file system structure, use the include option to
specify the data you want. Everything you do not specifically include is
excluded.
When you select only part of the file system structure to include (such as a
volume), all directories, subdirectories, and files under that selection are
included in the backup by default.
In the figure given below, volume SYS: is selected as an include option. All
other areas of the file system structure are excluded from the backup. You can
exclude some subdirectories or files beneath your selection if necessary.
