[Veritas-bu] Exclusions

2007-01-08 Thread Martin, Jonathan \(Contractor\)
I'm trying to figure out how to exclude a certain file suffix from all backups on a certain Linux/Unix client. Say *.mp3. In testing, creating *.mp3 doesn't work, nor does /*.mp3. I think the only way to make this work (and I think its kind of silly) is to say /*.mp3 /*/*.mp3 /*/*/*.mp3 /*/*/*

Just curious. Is the tape that's not full actually MARKED as full? Or is it just that NBU is choosing a second tape for other reasons (database backup, different retention, etc)? --- W. Curtis Preston Author of O'Reilly's Backup & Recovery and Using SANs and NAS VP Data Protection GlassHou

It could well be. My concern is that LTO2 should be at least 200GB and 400GB Compressed. so if you are getting nothing like that, its either the tape, drive, drive configuration issue perhaps. LTO3 offers 400GB / 800GB Compressed - LTO1 Is 100GB / 200GB compressed. Can you definetely confirm i
