Probably cleaner to: Have a single master.conf file that gives everything you currently [probably] have in there with the exception of the Runall: statement. Then setup a 3am and 4am file, each with a Runall: statement listing the the vaults you want to back up at that time and nothing else. Point dirvish-runall at the appropriate time associated config file. dirvish-expire just continues to pull all the bank information from master.conf as before. dirvish-runall will still load master.conf before whatever you specify on the command line. So if your master2.conf is pretty much a copy of master.conf, you're loading all that stuff twice. dirvish-runall doesn't use the contents of Runall:. I'm pretty sure it just goes off of the bank: data. I run a variation of that to backup different sets of vaults on a 3-day rotation. --Jon Radel _______________________________________________ Dirvish mailing list [email protected] http://www.dirvish.org/mailman/listinfo/dirvish
