Hi,
Is it possible to set up a base list of directories in the config.pl and add directories in the host-specific config file?
My scenario:
I have numerous Debian and Ubuntu boxes on which I would like to back up some Debian-specific directories, such as '/var/backups', '/var/cache/apt', '/var/lib/apt', '/var/lib/dpkg' on all boxes. Can I put these directories into the config.pl then put specific directories (such as /var/lib/mysql or /var/www) into the host-specific file? Perhaps by prepending the list in the host config with a comma?
Ideally, what I would like to see is the following (since I also have a few scattered SuSE and CentOS boxes around),
In config.pl:
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = [ '/boot', '/lib/modules', '/home', '/etc', '/var/backups', '/var/cache/apt', '/var/lib/apt', '/var/lib/dpkg', '/root', '/var/log', '/usr/local' ];
In <debian-host>.pl:
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = [ , '/var/www', '/var/lib/mediawiki1.7', '/usr/share/mediawiki1.7' ];
and in <non-debian-host>.pl:
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = [ '/boot', '/lib/modules', '/home', '/etc', '/root', '/var/log', '/usr/local', '/var/www', '/var/lib/mediawiki1.7', '/usr/share/mediawiki1.7' ];
So that the non-debian-host does not try to back up non-existent directories, since this tends to give BackupPC heartburn.
Is it possible to do something like this?
Thanks,
