Live Upgrade not excluding properly

I am upgrading from Solaris 7 to Solaris 9 (12/03 release) ... I am using
the lucreate command to create my BE and copy the data to the new drive ...
I have non-OS filesystems that I do not want copied ... I have tried the -f,
-z, and -x options trying to exclude the data and I am getting the following
message for each filesystem that I try to exclude:

INFORMATION: path </u01/> filter specification '-' overridden by '+'

Has anyone seen this and know of a fix? TIA!

The lucreate commands that I have tried with the various options are listed
below:

EXCLUDING WITH THE -z METHOD

/usr/sbin/lucreate -c sol7 -m /:/dev/dsk/c0t9d0s0:ufs -m
-:/dev/dsk/c0t9d0s1:swap -m /var:/dev/dsk/c0t9d0s3:ufs -m
/opt:/dev/dsk/c0t9d0s4:ufs -m /export/home:/dev/dsk/c0t10d0s0:ufs -n sol9 -z
/var/tmp/exclude_me.txt

The contents of the /var/tmp/exclude_me.txt file:

- /u01
- /u10
- /u20
- /u30
- /u40
- /u50
- /u60
- /u70
