I have a question concerning the DOMAIN option.
We have a few Unix hosts with filesystems that we *don't* want to back
up, so on those hosts I have a DOMAIN statement to control which
filesystems to back up.
This works, but I found no way in the documentation to do what I'd
really like to do. I'll try to explain:
Let's say I have a Unix host with filesystems for /, /usr, /tmp, /var,
/usr/local, /users, and /scratch. I want to back up everything but
/scratch and /tmp. I'd like to be able to say something like:
DOMAIN ALL-LOCAL !/scratch !/tmp
(The exact syntax doesn't matter, the main idea is that I'd like to be
able to say "all-local, minus these filesystems.")
Instead, as near as I can tell, I have to say:
DOMAIN / /usr /var /usr/local /users
Is there a way to do anyting like the first example? It's not a real
big deal, but I'm paranoid about the day that I add a filesystem for
/users2 and forget to add it to the domain statement. ;^)
