2.4.3b4 gnutar exclude troubles
2002-09-03 20:09:04
With 2.4.3b3 I was getting "MISSING RESULT" errors. the b4 release seems to
have at least fixed that, but it's still not excluding the files/dirs
listed in the exclude list.
Disklist entry:
homer.sistina.com /home/homer comp-user-tar
Dumptype as follows:
define dumptype comp-user-tar {
user-tar
priority medium
compress client best
exclude file "./amanda.exclude"
}
./amanda.exclude on "homer" in /home/homer looks like so:
./blutgens
./llama
./tool
./amandahatesme
./gnutarisbeingapunk
./*/.mozilla/*/*/Cache
The overall size of /home/homer is 37G. My exclude list contains
directories which make up 66% of that space (I have 20Gb tapes, and was
going to break it into 3 pieces) in the report where I learn that it's
failed I see:
In /tmp/amanda/sendsize on homer I see:
endsize[5041]: argument list: /bin/tar --create --file /dev/null --directory
/home/homer --one-file-system --listed-incremental
/etc/amanda/gnutar-lists/homer.sistina.com_home_homer_0.new
--sparse --ignore-failed-read --totals --exclude-from
/tmp/amanda/sendsize._home_homer.20020903112939.exclude .
Which looks odd to me since the file
/tmp/amanda/sendsize._home_homer.20020903112939.exclude contains only
"./amanda.exclude"
Which i do not believe would work. Shouldn't the file:
sendsize._home_homer.20020903112939.exclude e a copy of
amanda.exclude? or a `cat /path/to/amanda.exclude`
Or am I the only one having a problem with the GNUTAR exclude files?
