Creating policy and schedule specific exclude lists on NBU 7.6.0.2?
I have a policy that runs two different schedules, for backing up our Linux host. (Policy: Linux_Backups; Schedule: Linux_Full_Backups, Linux_Incremental_Backups).
Is there a way to define an exclude list that would be specifically targeted to exclude a specific subdirectory during each of these backups, and if so what is the process for doing so?
The following options exist when creating an exclude_list file:
- Create an exclude_list file if the exclude list will apply to all backups of the client.
- Create an exclude_list.<policy> if the exclude list will apply only for a specific policy.
- Create an exclude_list.<policy>.<schedule> if the exclude list will apply to only one schedule in a policy.http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH30603
so, for example
/usr/openv/netbackup/exclude_list.Linux_Backups.Linux_Incremental_Backups
might contain
/excluded-directory-name
and
/usr/openv/netbackup/exclude_list.Linux_Backups.Linux_Full_Backups
might contain
//some-other-directory
