Hello John,

I hope that the docs are clear:

https://docs.bareos.org/Configuration/Director.html#config-Dir_Fileset_Include_Options_FsType
and
https://docs.bareos.org/Configuration/Director.html#config-Dir_Fileset_Include_Options_OneFs

In short
>    One FS = no
>    File = /
should be enough if the fs type setting is correct.

If in doubt, you can always verify what happens using "estimate listing".

regards,

Philipp

Hi All,

In the sample Linux Fileset config file, the volume to backup is listed "File=/", and there's a short list of exclusions:
   Exclude {
     File = /var/lib/bareos
     File = /var/lib/bareos/storage
     File = /proc
     File = /dev
     File = /sys
     File = /tmp
     File = /var/tmp
     File = /.journal
     File = /.fsck
   }

At least on my system, /proc, /dev, /sys are all different filesystem types from what's llisted in the "backup these filesystems" list (proc, devtmpfs, sysfs).  Do I even need to include those directory paths in my Exclude list?  Could it cause "confusion" if they remained? Or, are those filesystem types "special" and backed up if they are found while traversing a filesystem?  Also, if I have multiple filesystem mounts (/, /home, /data for example), and all are a supported FS (ext4, for example), will they all be backed up with
   One FS = no
   File = /
Or, will I need to?
   One FS = no
   File = /
   File = /home
   File = /data

Thanks,
-John
