After the backup completes, and you browse the client's files that were backed up, you will see the oracle directory backed up, but not the files within the oracle directories.

In addition, you will see the hidden files too, because your skip "+skip: *" does not skip the hidden files (those that only have extension and no file name).


To skip all files in a directory, use:

  +skip: * .?*

Actually, using something like: << */oracle[1-5] >> is supported in NetWorker 9.2.x.


The preceeding * prepares NetWorker to expect wildcard characters.

As NW does not recognize a 'set' you need to specify each directory separately.

Do not forget that this will make its way to result in an absolule pathname.

Thank you Wallace for pointing that out.

I wish this feature would have made its way to the Release Notes ....
