I'll be on vacation during the next 50 days, the amount of posts will be small during this period, but keep sending your e-mail whenever possible I will answer. I am receiving much email in the last month with doubts and suggestions, I would like to thank all :-)
[Ignite] Exclude certain Filesystems
Using Ignite you have two option to specify the File Systems that will not be backup.
Specifing all Filesystems in "arquive_content" file:
# make_tape_recovery -x inc_entire=vg00 -f /var/opt/ignite/recovery/archive_content
See my excluded list:
# cat /var/opt/ignite/recovery/archive_content
exclude /dir_foo
exclude /dir_bar
This is the default file location if you are doing the backup through tape, if you want perform a "make_net_recovery" use the "/var/opt/ignite/clients/0x{LLA}/recovery/archive_content" (in the Ignite server).
The -f option is not allowed when using the -x options to specify the contents of the archive.
Specifing each Filesystem in command line (-x flag)
# make_tape_recovery -x inc_entire=vg00 -x exclude=/dir_foo -x exclude=/dir_bar
