I discovered that it seems that client side excludes for me has broken. And in
looking into it the documentation seems to have changed. On doc.bareos.org it
says:
If you precede the less-than sign (<) with a backslash as in ∖<, the file-list
will be read on the Client machine instead of on the Director’s machine.
Please note that if the filename is given within quotes, you will need to use
two slashes.
And the new docs.bareos.org site (notice the doc v.s docs) says the same
thing. But all of the examples use a single back-slash on docs.bareos.org.
In my File Set I have:
exclude {
# Exclude list on the director
file = "</usr/local/etc/bareos/excludes.director"
# The backslashes mean the file is on the client
file = "\\</usr/local/etc/bareos/excludes"
}
And on a client I have a /usr/local/etc/bareos/excludes that contains:
/local-project/tmp
/jails
But my backups don't ignore the /jails directory structure. I've verified this
with llist files jobid=119994.
I can't figure out what is wrong.
