Hello,
Can someone explain why my exclude option is not excluding filles as
instructed in my script below.
I have tried multiple methods and still have been unsuccessful in
excluding the one file "test.sql".
The methods I have tried are:
1. Removing EXTRAFLAG variable -a
2. Removing using -a
3. Option --include infront of --exclude and behind of --exclude.
4. rsync /software/testdir/ --exclude='/software/testdir/test.sql'
serv602:/software/testdir/
5. rsync /software/testdir/ --exclude="/software/testdir/test.sql"
serv602:/software/testdir/
6. I used other options indivually which -a uses.
7. rsync --exclude='/software/testdir/test.sql'
serv602:/software/testdir/ (this didnt copy anything fm the directory)
8. Cmd line - I attempted the same cmds as in 4 and 5 but it still did
not work right. It copied everything. (using rsync -e ssh)
I have read the manpages, looked at other examples on google, and the
references given from rsync website, and everyone seems to be doing it
the same way I am so I do not see what I am missing. Except that
I shouldn't be a programmer. :-)
So if someone could give me some hints as to what may be my problem
I would greatly appreciate your help.
Thanks!
Lori
