I'm not in the computer to check now, but there is an option in rsync that
controls wether it crosses or not filesystem boundaries
(--one-filesystem??). I think this is enabled by default in V4. If the
folders you're missing are mounted as a sub-directory of a folder you
backup, they won't be backup unless you disable that option or explicitly
add them to the backup list.
Best regards,
Guillermo
