Confusing.
I'd try "bareos-dir -t" with reasonably high debug level (-d900,
probably) to see which files are being read and which directives are
being parsed. I know, it dumps a lot of stuff (you definitely want to
redirect it to a file for reading with your favourite editor) but it
should show what's going on.

Thanks MK but I did do the show fileset="Full Laptop Set" and it
displayed the correct information.
I used webui to see the fileset used in the backup, But looking at the
actual backups, It used a previous version of the file (one specifically
date as 8 Jan 2019).
The only way I could get it to update (shown below) was to change the
resource name in the Job definition to "Full_Laptop_Set" and of course
change the name of in the fileset definition in the fileset directory.
before
Job {
Name = "BEE-XPS15_1bkup"
Level = Incremental
Storage = "BEE-XPS15-storage"
Pool = "BEE-XPS15"
Client = "BEE-XPS15-fd"
FileSet = "Full Laptop Set"
JobDefs = "Common_Attributes"
}
After
Job {
Name = "BEE-XPS15_1bkup"
Level = Incremental
Storage = "BEE-XPS15-storage"
Pool = "BEE-XPS15"
Client = "BEE-XPS15-fd"
FileSet = "Full_Laptop_Set"
JobDefs = "Common_Attributes"
}
and in fileset
from
FileSet {
Name = "Full Laptop Set"
Include {
Options {
Exclude = Yes
...
}
Options {
Signature = SHA1
Compression = GZIP6
}
File = "/home/bee"
File = "/media/windows/Users/bee"
}
}
to
FileSet {
Name = "Full_Laptop_Set"
...

I have update my fileset to include a new exclude statement. I have
restarted Bareos (including reboot the server). Unfortunately, Bareos
continues to use the old version of the fileset definition for the
backup. I do not find an update statement in the manual to force
Bareos to use the new fileset definition. bconsole does show the
updated fileset I have created. So what is the correct way to get
Bareos to use the updated fileset in the backups.
I am on Ubuntu 18.04 server using Bareos 18.2.5-131.1 according to webui

Question is how did you "update" the fileset and is it really used in
the job definition.
First things to check - do a "show job=<your-job-name>" and see what's
the fileset name and if it matches the fileset you were editing.
Example from my installation:
*show job=srv2-linux
Job {
Name = "srv2-linux"
Client = "srv2-fd"
FileSet = "Linux-minimal-fileset"
JobDefs = "DefaultJob"
}
(to be on the safe side you can also do the "show client" on the
client name to be sure you got the right machine configured for backup
with this job)
Now if you have a FileSet (in my case it's called
"Linux-minimal-fileset"), you do a "show fileset=<fileset-name>"
command. Like this:
*show fileset=Linux-minimal-fileset
FileSet {
Name = "Linux-minimal-fileset"
Include {
Options {
Signature = MD5
Compression = GZIP6
OneFS = No
AclSupport = Yes
XattrSupport = Yes
Fs Type = "btrfs"
Fs Type = "ext2"
Fs Type = "ext3"
Fs Type = "ext4"
Fs Type = "reiserfs"
Fs Type = "jfs"
Fs Type = "xfs"
Fs Type = "zfs"
}
File = "/root"
File = "/etc"
File = "/home"
File = "/var"
File = "/srv"
Plugin = "bpipe:file=/_rpmlist_/rpm.lst:reader=/usr/bin/rpm
-qa:writer=/bin/bash -c ''xargs yum install -y''"
}
Exclude {
File = "/var/lib/bareos"
File = "/var/lib/bareos/storage"
File = "/proc"
File = "/tmp"
File = "/var/tmp"
File = "/.journal"
File = "/.fsck"
File = "/srv/backups"
}
}
If the name of the fileset matches what you edited, but the contents
don't, it probably means that you edited a wrong file (try grepping
for the fileset name on your /etc, /opt, or /usr/local, depending on
how you installed and configured Bareos).
BTW, it's not necessary to restart director after configuration
change. It's enough to do a "reload" from bconsole.
