PowerProtect Data Manager 19.10 File System User Guide
Exclusion filters
Exclusion filters enable you to exclude certain files and folders from protection, based on the filter's conditions (conditions for exclusion).
Use the PowerProtect Data Manager UI to add, edit, and delete exclusion filters for file system files and folders.
When you create or edit a protection policy, you can apply exclusion filters to the protection policy.
When an exclusion filter is applied to a protection policy, the File System agent performs file-based backups of the protected assets. File-based backups traverse through the entire directory structure of the file system to back up all the files in each directory of the file system. While file-based backups can provide additional capabilities such as exclusion, these backups take longer to complete when compared to block-based backups.
NOTE Exclusion filters cannot be applied to self-service protection policies and to backups taken through self-service CLI.
