Do you mean you don't want to explicitly exclude all the other folders? You can exclude everything, then include the specific directories you want. Here is a vault config that I believe would do something similar to what you wanted. Basically I exclude everything, then include the two folders I want. The below will give me a backup of /etc and /var/backups. client:192.168.12.43 rsh: /etc/dirvish/dirvish-ssh.sh tree: / exclude: + /etc/ + /etc/** + /var/ + /var/backups/ + /var/backups/** - * index: gzip image-default: %Y%m%d%H
I've usually seen this a bit different, but if this is in fact backing up only /etc and /var/backups then I guess your way must work, but the way it looks to me, it looks like its backing up all of /var, because you don't exclude /var/* after including /var/backups.
Here's a script from Yoav Klein to dynamically create these rulesets: http://www.dirvish.org/pipermail/dirvish/2007-April/001294.htmlFor your example, it would write the following to the exclude file dirvish passes to rsync:
+ /etc + /var + /var/backups - /var/* - /* -- Eric Searcy OSU Open Source Lab
