BE12.5 does not honour selection list, cannot delete one.

L.S.

We run Backup Exec 12.5 rev 2213

In the days of limited tape space we had a selection list that excluded EXPIRED directories. Now we have a selection list that backups all. But in effect the EXPIRED directories are still not backed up.

I've use BEMCMD -o251 to list all selection lists, and saw that a list called "Excludes"exists. Trying to remove this script gives return value -1.

Made some screendumps below to show more than 1000 words.

I'm out of options here... HELP!

Daily Backup selection:

Trying to restore: Expired is missing!

Gee, i see a "Excludes" selection list which does not show in the GUI. What does it do?

Hm, that one explaines the erratic behaviour.

Cannot delete though.... bummer!

Now what?

Thanks in advance,
