Hi,

I want to exclude some directories (and subdirs) from amanda. 
Unfortunately, under other subdirs, I may have files that have the
same name pattern of the directories i'm trying to exclude.

Ex:

I want to exclude all "oradata" directories:

I have the following directory tree and files:

mount_point
|
------some_dir
|            some_file.dat
------oradata
|            some_other_file.txt
------some other dir
|            file diskx_oradata_tbs.dbf 
|            file abc_oradata_idx.dbf

I want to exclude from the backup, the "oradata" directory, but NOT
the files that contain oradata in their name.

Is there a way to tell amanda to exclude only files, or only
directories based on a pattern ?

Thanks
