Mixed files and sub-dirs in disklist entry

2002-05-30 Thread Brashers, Bart -- MFG, Inc.


Hi everyone,

I have some directories that contain both files and subdirectories, some of
which are larger than my tape size (DLT8000: 40Gb).  For example:

# pwd
/home/bart/projXXX
# ls
total 52k
drwxrwxrwx5 bart users4.0k May 16 15:15 calmm5/
drwxrwxrwx   23 bart users4.0k May 16 17:01 MM5/
-rwxrwxrwx1 bart users1.7k Jan 14 16:30 tovis5d.csh*
# du -csh *
4.0Gcalmm5
41G MM5
4.0ktovis5d.csh
44G total

So I can't add 

  /home/bart/projXXX

to the disklist: it's larger than a tape.

But if I add 

  /home/bart/projXXX/calmm5
  /home/bart/projXXX/MM5
  /home/bart/projXXX/tovis5d.csh

to the disklist, then (I think) gtar will fail on the last entry, since it's
not a directory.  Can I have to have a separate version of the call to gtar
that does not recurse into the subdirectories?  I'm not sure if amanda can
have two versions of the call to gtar.

Any workarounds you can suggest would be greatly appreciated

Bart

You can have a disklist entry for projXXX which excludes certain
directories. Then each of those directories can have its own
disklist entry.
