Oh - interesting to note.
I'm using globbing on a system with ZFS file systems, each
user directory has its own zfs file system carved out of a
large zpool. I have no problems with GNUTAR backups globbing
together the a* directories and then the b*, etc. Each file
system below my anchor point is a unique file system, but I
can glob them together in a single DLE. [My manager has suggested
separate DLE for use userid, but that would have been unworkable
for us], this scheme however does prevent me from being able to
backup the globs using snapshots.
