   * Exclude external drives /Volumes/MyPassport? (western digital)
   * Exclude /Volumes/Iomega HDD?
+ANSWER
+http://www.oucs.ox.ac.uk/hfs/help/excluding.xml.ID=excludedrives
+explains nicely what Jim was talking about excluding drives via GUI and also points out you can do it via client dsm.opt settings.  but it also shows me how we can do this server side wise, so i tried with bstewart-2008 after making sure /Volumes/WD1.5TB1 and /Volumes/WD1.5TB-2 were unique, added excludes for them and boom they were gone, node back to 350GB.
+so if we adopt a convention to force / to mount at some unique mountpoint, which it already does, we could do, evaluate from bottom up
+exclude /Volumes/.../*\\
+include /Volumes/SomeApprovedVolume/.../*\\
+include.dir /Volumes/Macintosh HD\\
+In the meantime i can set up global excludes for some of our problem cases whose mountpoint are unique and if they do not need to be backed up.
