excluding while backing up Windows box
2004-03-17 07:55:57
I am using Amanda over a SAMBA share to backup the harddrive on a windows
box. The disklist file looks like:
localhost //sun/C$ {
global
exclude file append "./pagefile.sys"
} -1 eth0
I tried placing more 'exclude' statements but got errors - it seems only one
is allowed when using SAMBA. In the final logs I get many errors:
? NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED opening remote file \Documents and Settings\All
Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Dr Watson\user.dmp (\Documents and
Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Dr Watson\)
? NT_STATUS_SHARING_VIOLATION opening remote file \Documents and
Settings\bclery\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Windows\UsrClass.dat (\Documents and Settings\bclery\Local
Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Window
Most of these are things I don't care to back up anyway. Is there a way
designate a backup of the whole harddrive ( //sun/C$ ) and exclude a long
list of don't-care subdirectories like:
exclude "\Documents and Settings\bclery\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Windows"
exclude "\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Dr
Watson"
