No need to define a proper dumptype for every exclusion under the sun.
Do you think this one will work?
No, several errors!
# the backup of home is getting larger when compressed
(I doubt that, because gzip does not do that; compress would, but
gzip not. -- Anyway, if it is almost uncompressable, then it's wasted
CPU time anyway.)
prometheus /home/a* tar-dfault-no-x
prometheus /home/b* tar-dfault-no-x
[...]
prometheus /home/z* tar-dfault-no-x
prometheus /home {
tar-dfault-no-x

}
Try this:
prometheus /home/ALL_a /home {
tar-dfault-no-x
include "./a*"
} 1
prometheus /home/ALL_b /home {
tar-dfault-no-x
include "./b*"
} 1
... etc etc ...
prometheus /home/ALL_z /home {
tar-dfault-no-x
include "./z*"
} 1
prometheus /home/REST /home {
tar-dfault-no-x
exclude append "./[a-z]*"
} 1
See "man amanda.conf" for the syntax of a disklist entry.
