No, No!
Leave the config.pl file in conf where it is. This specifies the defaults
for the various parameters. In the pc/hostname directories put config.pl
files with contents which override the defaults in the main config.pl
files in conf.
Here is an example of a pc/config.pl file
# Full backup every week
$Conf{FullPeriod} = 6.97;
# Keep 4 backups @ 1 week, Weeks: 0 1 2 3
$Conf{FullKeepCnt} = [4];
# Incremental backup daily and keep 6
$Conf{IncrPeriod} = 0.97;
$Conf{IncrKeepCnt} = 6;
# Don't use partial backups
$Conf{PartialAgeMax} = -1;
# Don't do backups between 3am and Midnight
# Servers should be backed up overnight
$Conf{BlackoutGoodCnt} = 0;
$Conf{BlackoutBadPingLimit} = 3;
$Conf{BlackoutPeriods} = [
{
hourBegin => 3.0,
hourEnd => 24.0,
weekDays => [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6],
},
];
$Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsync';
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = ['/etc', '/home', '/root', '/usr/local'];
$Conf{CompressLevel} = 0;
Hope this helps,
