Why, in the Backup-Archive Clients Installation and User's Guide v5.2 for Unix does it
recommend having the following as a minimum in the backup.excl file.
exclude /unix/ > yet to come across a directory called unix on
solaris, aix or linux.. so what do these two unix statements do?
exclude.dir /unix/ >
exclude /.../core > I know what this does
And finally, we've implemented the following (//.../*) in a backup.excl list and
proven that it does work, however, it's not documented anywhere in the manuals so we
don't want to deploy companywide
until we get confirmation that there are no adverse effects.
The first line excludes any file systems that may be added to a client without our
knowledge. However, it was excluding / (root) as well. Note: we put the extra / in
front of root, and it now works.
Does anyone have any insight?
