Assigning File Exclusion Rules

To assign an existing file exclusion rule to the current job definition:

1. Open the Assign File Exclusion Rule dialog box by doing one of the following:

   • Right-click on the enterprise name or icon to display a context menu. Then select Assign File Exclusion Rule.
   • From the menu bar, select Backup > Assign File Exclusion Rule.
   • On the task panel, click Assign File Exclusion Rule.

   The Assign File Exclusion Rule dialog box appears.

2. From the Rule Names list, select the rule to assign to this backup job definition. If you want no file exclusion rule to apply, select None from the list.
