Re: split disklist aphabetically
The Amanda operator did not have the proper permissions... The problem
is now fixed.
Thanks.

No.
Is the directory /store/homes/students readable by user amanda?

Hello Folks,
What are your recommendations for spliting directories with excludes

backup?
Basically, I want:
client /foo/a* dumptype-a

client /foo/z* dumptype-z
define dumptype common-stuff {

Here's what I'm using on a 1.5TB partition /data/ma/ma1
to be backed up with an LTO1 Ultrium tape drive:
bullcalf ma1_f /data/ma/ma1/f {
high-tar
} 1
bullcalf ma1_l /data/ma/ma1/l {
high-tar
} 2
bullcalf ma1_m /data/ma/ma1/m {
high-tar
} 3
bullcalf ma1_s /data/ma/ma1/s {
high-tar
exclude append "./fil/*"
exclude append "./jen/*"
exclude append "./jorge/*"
exclude append "./karine/*"
exclude append "./repric/*"
exclude append "./sandra/*"
exclude append "./shirley/*"
} 4
bullcalf ma1_s_fil /data/ma/ma1/s/fil {
high-tar
} 5
etc for the other excluded dirs in ma1_s.
The dumptype high-tar is gnutar with no compression
and with index and record turned on. Works for me!

Hello Folks, What are your recommendations for spliting directories with excludes without having to reorganize directories in a partition that I want to backup? Basically, I want: client /foo/a* dumptype-a client /foo/b*dumptype-b . . . client /foo/z* dumptype-z Is this something that can be done? What are the problems associated with this aproach?
