Hi Fred,
Maybe estimate ?
Ludovic.
http://bacula.org/rel-manual/Bacula_Console.html#SECTION000205000
*estimate*
Using this command, you can get an idea how many files will be
backed up, or if you are unsure about your Include statements in
your FileSet, you can test them
I can't see anything else.
You could first use a generic "backup everything" fileset just to first
get the list via estimate, then adjust ?
