I want to exclude backups of mp3 files from one certain subdirectory.
I use rsync transport method, and I tried to exclude backups of mp3
files from one cretain directory like below - unfortunately, it didn't work:
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = [
'/'
];
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = [
'/proc/*',
'/mnt/*',
'/tmp/*',
'/media/*',
'/sys/*',
'/home/samba/linuxbackup/*',
'/var/log/samba/*',
'/var/log/ldap/*',
'/home/samba/profiles/Domain Users/contact/*.MP3',
'/home/samba/profiles/Domain Users/contact/*.mp3',
'/home/samba/profiles/Domain\ Users/contact/*.MP3',
'/home/samba/profiles/Domain\ Users/contact/*.mp3'
];
I know that if I give '*.mp3' to $Conf{BackupFilesExclude} it will
exclude mp3 files, but from all sub/directories - this is not what I want.
Other way to do it would be to add such an exclude:
'/home/samba/profiles/Domain Users/contact/*.mp3',
'/home/samba/profiles/Domain Users/contact/*/*.mp3',
'/home/samba/profiles/Domain Users/contact/*/*/*.mp3',
'/home/samba/profiles/Domain Users/contact/*/*/*/*.mp3',
'/home/samba/profiles/Domain Users/contact/*/*/*/*/*.mp3',
'/home/samba/profiles/Domain
Users/contact/*/*/*/*/*/*.mp3',
'/home/samba/profiles/Domain Users/contact/*.MP3',
'/home/samba/profiles/Domain Users/contact/*/*.MP3',
'/home/samba/profiles/Domain Users/contact/*/*/*.MP3',
'/home/samba/profiles/Domain Users/contact/*/*/*/*.MP3',
'/home/samba/profiles/Domain Users/contact/*/*/*/*/*.MP3',
'/home/samba/profiles/Domain
Users/contact/*/*/*/*/*/*.MP3',
But as you see, it doesn't scale very well, because you never know how
many subdirectories are really there.
How can I exclude backups of certain filetypes from one
directory/subdirectory only?
