Thanks for your quick advise Brian, I still want to post my DLEs and their sizes, may be you or someone can throw additional ideas.
weeklyfull ~ total size about 58GB client.domain.com /export/./abc /export { 12G comp-tar include "./abc" } -1 client.domain.com /export/./def /export { 4.5GB comp-tar include "./def" } -1 client.domain.com /export/./ghi /export { 1.2GB comp-tar include "./ghi" } 2 client.domain.com /export/./jkl /export { 1GB comp-tar include "./jkl" } -1 #client.domain.com /export/./mno /export { 23GB # comp-tar # include "./mno" #} 2 client.domain.com /export/./pqr /export { 14GB comp-tar include "./pqr" } 2 client.domain.com /export/./stu /export { 162 MB comp-tar include "./stu" } -1 Monthlyfull ~ total size about 90GB client.domain.com /export/./vwx /export { 3.3 GB comp-tar include "./vwx" } -1 client.domain.com /export/./yz /export { 1.0GB comp-tar include "./yz" } -1 client.domain.com /export/OTHER/./a-m /export/OTHER { 9GB comp-tar include "./[a-m]*" } -1 client.domain.com /export/OTHER/./n-z /export/OTHER { 9GB comp-tar include "./[n-z]*" } 2 client.domain.com /export/OTHER/./_rest_ /export/OTHER { 9GB comp-tar exclude append "./[a-z]*" } 2 client.domain.com /export/./jack /export { 2.3GB comp-tar include "./jack" } 2 client.domain.com /export/./users /export { 24 GB comp-tar include "./users" } -1 client.domain.com /export/./egg /export { 8GB comp-tar include "./egg" } -1 client.domain.com /export/./apple /export { 21GB comp-tar include "./apple" } 2 client.domain.com /export/./vls /export { 14GB comp-tar include "./vls" } -1 Apart from this, Total holding space from hd1 and hd2 is = 17 GB + 41 GB = 58GB. May be I should try to use flush-threshhold-* options if there is nothing else that can be adjusted in my case. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by upendra.gan...@gmail.com via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +----------------------------------------------------------------------
