We ahve a nested folder structure, and (for some reasons that would lead to much into detail) we want to back-up some of these folders in a seperate job.

Root Folder
+--FolderA
+--FolderA1
+--FolderA2
+--FolderB
+--FolderB1
+--FolderB2
+--FolderC

We need to save some of the directories separately, in detail:
-) A Backup job that saves everything in Root Folder, but excludes FolderA and FolderB
-) Another Backup job that saves everything in FolderA.
-) A third job that saves everything in FolderB, but excludes Folder B1 (and of course saves Folder B2 as well).

Is this possible in an Windows environment using directives? How do I have to design these directives?
 
The point in the question might be:
Is it possible (in a Windows environment) to back-up the RootFolder with one job and excluding FolderA in it, and saving FolderA with another job? (And if so, which command do I have to use in the directive in the RootFolder?)

RootFolder
+--FolderA
 
yes you can...

create a directorice in order to
<< /folderA >>
+skip
<< /folderB >>
+skip

and in the client resource with save set "All" assign this directive.

in another client resource put a save set for "FoldarA" only, no directives (or compression directive)

in another client resource put a save set for "FoldarB" only, with directives:

<< /folderB1 >>
+skip


Read the admin guide about "Directives".
