Re: [Bacula-users] File-set include/exclude questions

Hi guys, I tried your suggestions, but it didn't work as it should....
I'm out of options now

with the following file set:

FileSet
{
Name = "thunderbird-file-set"
Enable VSS = yes
Include
{
     Options
     {
       Exclude = yes
       Wild = "c:/Documents and Settings/*"
     }
     Options
     {
       signature = MD5         #Create MD5 Signature
       compression=GZIP       #Compress Incoming Data on the client
       Exclude = no
       Wild = "c:/Documents and Settings/*/Dados de aplicativos/Thunderbird/Profiles/*"
     }
     File = "c:/Documents and Settings/"
}
}

Nothing is backed up, I have tried every suggestion you guys gave me, and those in the manual.
The manual shows an example very similar to the one you suggested me, but it's on a *nix client/machine. I made many tests, and bacula does match the "Wild = "c:/Documents and Settings/*/Dados de aplicativos/Thunderbird/Profiles/*" " I create a test job including the whole "Documents and Settings directory", and excluding the above, and it worked, however if I exclude the whole directory "Documents and Settings" exacly as I did on the file set above, no file is backed up at all. I tried changing the order of the options, and many other things, but nothing worked.
Using the console to test the file set I get the following output:

estimate job="francisco-job" fileset="thunderbird-file-set" level="Full" client="suporte_001-fd"

Connecting to Client suporte_001-fd at suporte_001:9102

2000 OK estimate files=1 bytes=0

If someone who administer a network with windows machines, making backup of a specific folder on a per profile basis can help me, I'd thank very much. The above configurations seems to work on a linux machine, but not perfectly on a windows one

BTW, on the client I'm using:

suporte_001-fd Version: 2.2.8 (26 January 2008) VSS Linux Cross-compile Win32

and on the server I'm using:
anita-dir Version: 2.2.8 (26 January 2008) i486-pc-linux-gnu debian 4.0
anita-sd Version: 2.2.8 (26 January 2008) i486-pc-linux-gnu debian 4.0

Thanks very much folks.

Hi Silver, that's what I imagined, I just posted this questions on the list to make sure of this.
Maybe this should be a feature in the wishlist?

I included the escaped quotes because I read in the manual that if the path has spaces, it should be passed to the windows file daemon within quotes..... I'll make some tests without the quotes to see if it works.

And Silver, thank you very much for the example, even though I imagined how it was supposed to be done, with an example it gets much easier.

Eitan, thanks for the tip, but isn't wildfile for files only?
Inside this profile directory there's another directory which has a random name, and that's the directory I need to backup up. But thanks for the tip anyway.

Hi Israel

You should use this format

WildFile = "[A-Z]:/Documents and Settings/*/ Dados de aplicativos/Thunderbird/Profiles"

Subject: [Bacula-users] File-set include/exclude questions

Hi there guys.

   I'm configuring bacula to backup thunderbird data in different machines, and to not define a fileset to each machine I'm
trying to define a wilddir option that matches every user data in any machine, but it didn't worked.
That's the file-set:

FileSet
{
Name = "thunderbird-file-set"
Enable VSS = yes
Include
{
     Options
     {
       signature = MD5         #Create MD5 Signature
       compression=GZIP       #Compress Incoming Data on the client
       WildDir = "\"c:/Documents and Settings/*/Dados de aplicativos/Thunderbird/Profiles/\""
     }

}
}

I know there's a include file option missing but that's the point:
I don't want to include the whole Documents and Settings directory to exlcude all the other except the one I want to back up. I read the 11th chapter of the manual, and there is no example of what I want, which is just include a wildcard/regex to backup what I want, without including a directory to later exclude what I don't need. It seemed to me that there is no way of doing it the way I want(without an exclude option).
The concept of including a wider selection to then exclude what I don't need seems bizarre to me.
Would be nice if bacula director accept this config without error:

FileSet
{
Name = "thunderbird-file-set"
Enable VSS = yes
Include
{
     Options
     {
       signature = MD5         #Create MD5 Signature
       compression=GZIP       #Compress Incoming Data on the client
     }
     WildDir = "\"c:/Documents and Settings/*/Dados de aplicativos/Thunderbird/Profiles/\""
}
}

but bacula doesn't start and outputs this error:
Restarting Bacula Director: 23-Abr 19:04 bacula-dir: ERROR TERMINATION at inc_conf.c:378
Config error: Keyword WildDir not permitted in this resource

Thanks in advance.
