I've done this a couple of different ways.
Ideally, you put a directive like this in your tuvalu.pl config file:
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = ['tuvalu-a', 'tuvalu-b', 'tuvalu-c', 'tuvalu-d',
'tuvalu-e', 'tuvalu-f', 'tuvalu-g'];
And that runs backups on each of those shares. They'll all appear under the
'tuvalu' tree in the backuppc pool.
If you find it necessary to build wholly separate configs for each share;
you put entries in /etc/backuppc/hosts like this:
tuvalu-a 0 backuppc
tuvalu-b 0 backuppc
tuvalu-c 0 backuppc
..
and then create tuvalu-a.pl, tuvalu-b.pl, tuvalu-c.pl...
within each of them, have a config something like this (abbreviated, obviously).
$Conf{ClientNameAlias} = 'tuvalu';
$Conf{NmbLookupCmd} = '/bin/true';
$Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsync';
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = 'tuvalu-a';
Does this help clarify things?
