I have a question about the disklist format.

I am using tar to dump my filesystems. I would like to dump / (without /home) and have /home be on a separate DLE. How do I do that? Must I specify each directory in / as a separate DLE?


It depends on your partition layout. Amanda runs tar with the --one-file-system option, so backing up / will, by default, grab only what's in the same partition with /. If home is in that partition, you'll need to exclude it, and then add a DLE for it.


Thanks!

On my system /home is a different partition, so I can just specify / and /home.

Thanks,
