I changed the exclude list to:
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = {
'*' => [
'/proc',
'/sys',
'/tmp',
'/var/tmp',
'/usr/tmp',
'/mnt',
'/media',
'/auto',
'/var/run/acpid.socket',
'/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket',
'/var/lib/backuppc/cpool',
'/var/lib/backuppc/pc',
'/var/lib/backuppc/pool',
'/var/lib/backuppc/trash',
# '/var/lib/vmware/Virtual Machines/*/*.vmdk',
# '/var/lib/vmware/Virtual Machines/*/*.vmem',
# '/var/lib/vmware/Virtual Machines/*/*.vmsd',
# '/var/lib/vmware/Virtual Machines/*/*.vmsn',
# '/var/lib/vmware/Virtual Machines/*/*.vmss',
'/backupdata'
]
};
And the rsync command to:
$Conf{RsyncClientCmd} = '$sshPath -q -x -l netbackup $host /usr/bin/sudo
$rsyncPath $argList+';
and ran the backup again. It did not work, sadly. Output:

We use the sudo method for backups on other networks and have not had an
issues, though I'm not sure if we've got any excludes with
metacharacters on any of those. Probably, we don't.
