  Each path specified is a child of the backup root directory and must start with a forward slash (/).

• The maximum number of paths that you can include or exclude is 32.
• Each path can be a maximum of 128 bytes long.
• The first or the last element of the path can contain a wildcard character (*).
• If both include and exclude paths are defined, the NDMP server will first check for include, then check for exclude.
