Folder backup issue

Here's sample folder structure:

E:
|-USERDATA
|
|_HOMEFOLDER1
| |
| |- SUBDIR
| |*.exe
| |*.bak
| |*.mp3
|
|_HOMEFOLDER2
|
|*.exe
|*.bak
|*.mp3

If I have already designated that I want UserData backed up and a new subfolder under HOMEFOLDER2 is created do I need to update my filter in order to have the new subfolder backed up? He's my situation. I have a Domino Server. I've installed my Notes Server Agent and told ArcServe to back up Notes. Yet, every time I create a new user account I have to go in and update my filter to have ArcServe pick up the new folder. Am I missing something?


Thanks
 
If the Tree is expanded under USERDATA then you have a problem.

If the Tree is not expanded so that it does not show what is under USERDATA then anything added will be automatically included.

When the Tree is expanded the job is packaged with that tree as shown. So a directory is added under USERDATA is seen as something that is not part of the source and so not backed up.
 
Thamks David,

Understood. I really appreciate your getting back to me. You're invaluable this board.
