Defining include and exclude statements

[J1gh2]

Hi Folks,

I would appreciate your help with this. Our Oracle databases uses RMAN to backup so I want to backup everything but exclude the following Oracle directories, as defined in my inclexcl file:

exclude "/u*/oracle/archive/*"
exclude "/u*/oracle/oradata/*"
exclude "/u*/oracle/oraindex/*"
exclude "/u*/oracle/oratemp/*"
exclude "/u*/oracle/oraundo/*"
exclude "/u*/oracle/redo/*"

However, these directories are still backed up. Is there something else that I need to do or do I need to enter include statements as well?

I found that I had to use exclude.dir and exclude.fs to get the desired result. But it works now. I found the following site really useful:
