Another Directive Question

I am trying to develop a directive that backs up only the 3rd level (and lower) of a UNIX filesystem (skip levels 1 & 2).

i.e. /ora_logs/dev/export
/ora_logs/oem/export

I only want to backup both "export" directories, skipping "ora_logs", "dev", and "oem".

I followed the example on page 205 of the Administor's Guide that uses the keyword "forget" but get files from all levels.

Here is the directive I used:

<< /ora_logs >>
+skip: *.*
<< /ora_logs/dev/export >>
forget
<< /ora_logs/oem/export >>
forget

Any ideas as to how this can be done?

Thanks in advance, awu0227
 
Are you sure that the files from all levels are being backed up? Try running a savegrp with verbosity set to see what is actually being backed up.
