Thanks John

That is what I am using.

I only what to omit the /dumps folders.

I think I will have to create them in a separate partition.

Thanks for that.

Regards

Kevin

Hi Kevin,

Are you using Amanda 2.4.3b3?  I think there is a bug in the 'exclude'
lists in the definition of dumptypes (including the inline exclude 
lists like you're using) for that version.  The bug causes the dumps to 
fail, at least it does in my case.

How to work around your problem without using exclude lists, I'm not sure, 
although you might try 'include' lists -- I'm not sure if the same bug 
affects these.

J.
