Backup Central

Hi Craig,

Thought you'd like to know that the fix for the exclude worked. Looks like
the escaped space on the end of the directory names didn't hurt things.

Great!

When you feel ambitious you should try turning back on the huge
directory and see if that works. Next try the huge files (you
mentioned 10GB). I suspect the huge files caused the original
problem -- we need to test and fix files over 8GB. It should
be possible with tar to make file lengths up to 64GB work.

Hi Craig,

I let it loose on the big files. It died. Not sure what happened. The
XferLOG seems ok but the system log tells me there was an ALRM signal
(presumably a timeout).

Phill.
