Thank you for your idea Dan, it looks a good way.
Here is a more simple example to catch the problem easier:
FileSet {
Name = server-test
Include {
Options {
onefs = no
}
Options {
signature = MD5
compression = GZIP
fstype = ext2
}
}
Exclude {
}
}
With this example, I have compression. If I set the second Options
section in first position, I don't.
I made a similar test with attribute "fstype = ext2" (The server is a
Windows machine with NTFS).
- With the attribute in first Options section, files are backed up
(wrong behavious).
- With the attribute in second Options section, files are _not_ backed
up (good behavious).
From http://www.bacula.org/dev-manual/Configuring_Director.html :
"The Include resource may also contain one or more Options resources [...]"
So is a bug or did I miss something else where ?
