Error description
IBM Spectrum Protect Plus file cataloging does not work if a single disk is excluded from the Virtual machine. Example: "MyVM" contains Hard Disk 1 & Hard Disk 2 "MyVM" is assigned to SLA "MySLA" Hard Disk 2 is excluded from "MySLA", so it should not be backed up. File cataloging is enabled for "MyVM" When "MySLA" runs, Hard Disk 1 is backed up, but file cataloging does not work on this disk. The expectation is that although a disk is excluded from backup, file cataloging should work on the other disks. Initial impact: Medium Versions affected: 10.1.1 Keywords: TS000896605 Local fix: None
