[BackupPC-users] Need help on scheduling, full backups and excluding dir

Hi,

I have a backuppc installation, where i have a few problems.

1. Scheduling: We wish to schedule the clients backup only after 11:00am, and till 07:00pm. Further we want to keep only 1 full backup, and 5 incremental backups for each weekday. I know having 1 full backup is bad, but thats how the management wants it. This is how i have setup in the config.pl file

$Conf{WakeupSchedule} = [11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19];

$Conf{FullPeriod} = '6.97';

$Conf{IncrPeriod} = '0.97';

$Conf{FullKeepCnt} = [1];

$Conf{FullKeepCntMin} = 1;

$Conf{FullAgeMax} = 90;

$Conf{IncrKeepCnt} = 5;

$Conf{IncrKeepCntMin} = 1;

$Conf{IncrAgeMax} = 6;

$Conf{IncrLevels} = [1];

Now i see that instead of taking 1 full backups, its keeping 2 full backups. How do i force it to store only 1 backup ?

2. I have excluded the following directories in backup

$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = {
'*' => [
    'WUTemp',
    'UsrClass.dat',
    'NTUSER.DAT',
    'parent.lock',
    'Thumbs.db',
    'ntuser.dat.LOG',
    'IconCache.db',
    'pagefile.sys',
    'hiberfil.sys',
    'UsrClass.dat.LOG',
    '/WINDOWS',
    '/Program Files',
    '/Progra~1',
    '/Config.Msi',
    '/$AVG*',
    '/cygwin*',
    'autoexec.ch',
    'config.ch',
    '/*/Cache',
    '/RECYCLER',
    '/RECYCLER/',
    '/*/Temporary?Internet?Files',
    '/System?Volume?Information',
    '/System Volume Information/',
    '/Documents and Settings/*/Application Data/Microsoft/Search/Data',
    '/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Application Data/Google/Chrome/User Data/Default/Cache',
    '/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Application Data/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/*.default/Cache',
    '/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Temp',
    '/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Temporary Internet Files',
    '/System Volume Information',
    '/Temp',
    '/MSOCache/'
]

However even though the above excludes have been put in the config file, i see these directories/ files being backed up. How do i remove them from the pool ? And ensure they aren't backed up ?

Would really appreciate the help on this.
