Hi,
Is the following wildcard correct to exclude all ghost files (*.gho) from the backup of a subclient.
In the Properties of the subclient, under exclude these files/folders/patterns:

e:\data\**\*.gho

(exclude all files of type gho, from all the sub-directories of e:\data)

thanks
 
The documentation for 6.1 denotes ** as the recursive character and for 7.0 * is the recursive character...even though ** works in 6.1.

The path you have give will exclude all .gho files in the e:\data directory along with sub directories.
