Data sets listed by this optional keyword are not written
to the aggregate backup data file. If you specify the same fully qualified
data set name in both the INCLUDE and EXCLUDE lists, the data set
is not selected, because EXCLUDE takes precedence over INCLUDE.
The EXCLUDE keyword syntax is:
| Keyword |
Field |
|---|
| Exclude |
(dsn..., dsnmask...) |
- Exclude — Enter the whole word or
an abbreviation of the word. The letter E is the minimum abbreviation
allowed.
- dsn..., dsnmask... — Specifies
the data set names or masks to be excluded from the aggregate backup. dsnmask represents a partially qualified data
set name.
Note: Aggregate backup combines the INCLUDE and EXCLUDE
lists from all selection data sets for processing. The combination
of lists must result in the selection of at least one data set, or
aggregate backup fails.
