Hello, I have a several virtual machines running on a single physical machine. I run the FD on the physical machine and to back up the VMs I run a pre and post client script. The pre takes snapshots of the VM logical volumes and mounts them on the physical machine. The post unmounts the snapshots and removes the snapshots. Works good.
The problem is I need a FileSet for each machine even though the fileset really isn't the same. The reason is that when I mount the VM FS it is mounted as /backup/machinename/fsname. What I would like to do is have a single FileSet with the client name populated at the time of the job running. I don't believe with Python I can do this, infact I don't think there is any way to do that. Thoughts? I guess I can look through the code and see if I can make the change myself. Anyone want to give pointers on where to look? Thanks, Jeff My current FileSet looks like: FileSet { Name = "machine1" Include { Options { signature = MD5 Compression=GZIP strippath=1 } File = /backup/machine1/partitons.txt File = /backup/machine1/partiton_table.txt File = /backup/machine1/partition_table_howto.txt File = /backup/machine1/root File = /backup/machine1/customers File = /backup/machine1/home } Exclude { File = /backup/machine1/root/dev File = /backup/machine1/root/proc File = /backup/machine1/root/tmp } } FileSet { Name = "machine2" Include { Options { signature = MD5 Compression=GZIP strippath=1 } File = /backup/machine2/partitons.txt File = /backup/machine2/partiton_table.txt File = /backup/machine2/partition_table_howto.txt File = /backup/machine2/root File = /backup/machine2/customers File = /backup/machine2/home } Exclude { File = /backup/machine2/root/dev File = /backup/machine2/root/proc File = /backup/machine2/root/tmp } } ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
