Using directives to exclude a filesystem on Solaris

[koolv]

Good morning. I am trying to setup a directive to exclude an entire filesystem from backup. I've fooled around with adding "skip" here and there with no sucess. Any help with this is appreciated.

Thanks.

Have you try with the following directives ?

e.g. / is your fs and /bla is the fs that you want exclude

directive 1==========
<< />>
skip: bla
=====================

directive 2==========
<< /bla >>
skip: .?* *
=====================

I had the following:

<</amanda>>
+skip: /amanda
skip: /amanda

I'll try one of your suggestions.

Thanks

Is the amanda file system seperate or is it part of /?

 

[flaviog]

Perhaps is not correct the directive...

<</amanda>>
+skip: /amanda
skip: /amanda

I think that is not possible to use the preview directive
because it means the you want exclude under the fs /amanda each file e/o directory named /amanda (it means to exclude the paths /amanda/amanda and /amanda/dir1/dir2/amanda).

Amanda is a separate filesystem ( /amanda )

You need something like:

<< /amanda >>
skip: .?* *
