Simple, make an exclude_list containing: /pool/Teamcenter/
Then specify in your backup list: /pool/Teamcenter/.zfs/snapshot/backup Eric -----Original Message----- From: Alexander Skwar [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 08, 2007 3:53 PM Cc: veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] Backing up ZFS snapshots Johnson, Eric schrieb: > You can control whether the .zfs directory for snapshots is visible or > not woth the "zfs set snapdir=visible <filesyste>" option. I know - but how does that solve the problem? If .zfs were visible, wouldn't this make even more problems? Suppose I'd backup /pool, this would cause the original /pool/Teamcenter and also the snapshot underneath /pool/Teamcenter/.zfs/snapshot/backup to be stored on tape. That's absolutely not what I want - I do not want to store the (more or less) same content twice - I don't work at Imation, or any other tape vendor, you know ;) Alexander Skwar -- If I want your opinion, I'll ask you to fill out the necessary form. _______________________________________________ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu
