Hello Stefan,
No, this will not backup anything because you have not specified
anything to backup with a `File = /path/to/somewhere` inside of your
`Include{}` block. So far, you have only set something (WildFile) inside
of an `Option{}` block.
There are several ways to do what you want (there always is with Bacula :)
The first, based on your current Fileset template will require a `File
=` line as mentioned above and also another `Options{}` block to exclude
everything else:
----8<----
Fileset {
Name = "VM_xxx-y"
Include {
# This option block matches your *.vbk files and creates a
signature in the catalog for backed up files
Options {
signature = sha1 # You need a
signature, so I added this
WildFile = "/mnt/backup/vmbackup/*.vbk" # Note, I fixed your
extra quotes and a backslash and simplified here
}
# This options block says to exclude everything else, not matched
above
Options {
WildFile = "*.*"
Exclude = yes
}
File = "/mnt/backup/vmbackup" # And finally, what 'top level'
directory are we considering for backups
}
}
----8<----
This "Should work"™ I have not tested it, and wrote it quickly in my
email client before finishing my first cup of coffee this morning. :)
First coffee here right now ;-)
Thanks for your example.
I didn't add "signature" but already came up with this yesterday:
Fileset {
Name = "VM_XYZ"
Include {
File = "/mnt/backup/vmbackup/Backup XYZ"
Options {
WildFile = "*.vbk"
}
Options {
Exclude = "Yes"
RegexFile = ".*"
}
}
}
seems to work!
Do I have to add that signature-line?
Remember, when you have re-configured this Fileset and have issued a
`reload` command in bconsole, instead or running the job, you can
quickly see if your settings do what you want with an `estimate` command
like:
* estimate listing job=xxxx
This way you don't have a bunch of failed jobs in your catalog. :)
Ah, good, that's a nice learning, thanks!
P.S. I see your files (or directories, I am not 100% sure which) have
spaces in their names. I would recommend doing yourself a favor and not
using spaces if you can help it. It will make your life easier and save
you from needing to "escape" spaces with backslashes, etc.
I totally agree, but it's not fully in my hand.
The Veeam--backups are done by another admin there .. I will talk to him
to use better naming and also generalizing the directory names.
I am proceeding with editing and testing all my Filesets and Jobs now.
Have a great day,
Stafen
