Eric, thanks for your response. It does seem to me that amanda is backing up correctly the "sub-share" //db/f$/inetsrv/webpub/images, because of these lines in the info output: Current info for admin //db/f$/inetsrv/webpub/images: Stats: dump rates (kps), Full: 2661.0, 2785.0, -1.0 Incremental: 230.0, 5.0, 21.0 compressed size, Full: -100.0%,-100.0%,-100.0% Incremental: -100.0%,-100.0%,-100.0% Dumps: lev datestmp tape file origK compK secs 0 20030915 DailySet126 16 6809105 6826070 2565
It just doesn't seem to ignore the exclude file for the "full-share" backup. -Kevin >>> "eric a.
