Hallo Stefan,
The exclude-files get placed on the clients!
No NFS needed.
Sorry, I haven't look carefully enough.
This happens from time to time ... ;)
This means, however, that indeed all of the data is fetched by amanda
prior to backing up, right (so all will go on the holding disk first)?
Presumably this mean that the holding disk is large enough to hold the sum
of all home directories?
Not at all, no.
The AMANDA-client runs GNU-tar (you have to set that) over your DLE
(this process is executed on the client, so no network transfer), with
the exclude/include-list as an option, so only the files that are
matching the resulting patterns are sent over the wires ...
Things you exclude don't get dumped. As you would expect ...
Stefan.
