Hello all,
While running a job, if I look at the status of the client, bacula appears to be selecting files I don't want. If, say, I only want to backup "*.txt" files, the status makes it seem as though the server is backing up _all_ files. I'm using bacula 5.2.5 for both the client and server. I had used the bregex program and from my results my expressions looked okay (or so I thought).
The command I'm running for the status is:
echo status client=MyClient | bconsole -n | grep 'Processing File:'
Here is what my FileSet looks like. I'm trying to go off the example in the Bacula book (~page 178 in my version of main.pdf), where they say to express the files you want (above) and then use ".*" to exclude everything else (below) that you _don't_ want. Maybe I'm using the example incorrectly? I know they used wilddir in the book where as I use RegexFile and RegexDir, I was hoping regex in its place would work out okay.
Does anyone see what I might be doing wrong? Should I be using RegexDir = ".*" instead of RegexFile = ".*"?
