I'm using amanda to back up our Linux servers, and want to exclude some
directories from a specific folder on a backup client.
In my disklist on the backup server, I've got an entry such as:
backupclientname /usr/local/clients comp-tar
And on the backup client I have a folder such as:
/usr/local/clients/client1
In my amanda.conf I specify an exclude file in the dumptype:
define dumptype comp-tar {
program "GNUTAR"
compress fast
index yes
record yes
exclude list "/usr/local/etc/amanda/exclude/exclude-list"
}
Now I want to exclude the directory /usr/local/clients/client1/archive.
Will this work, when defined in
/usr/local/etc/amanda/exclude/exclude-list on the backup client?:
./client1/archive
I believe that the above will take /usr/local/clients (from the
disklist) and append /client1/archive (from the exclude file), to result
in /usr/local/clients/client1/archive to be excluded, but would
appreciate if anyone can confirm this for me.
Thanks very much.
