I'd do this:
Fileset {
Name = "Set 1"
Include {
Options {
Signature = MD5;
Compression = None;
}
File = /home/[a-g]*;
}
}
Fileset {
Name = "Set 2"
Include {
Options {
Signature = MD5;
Compression = None;
}
File = /home/[h-m]*;
}
}
etc.
The other thing to do would be to use a single Fileset which gets its
File list from a script which automatically returns a list of the
correct set of home directories to be backed up that day.
