Hi,
I freshly installed PBS on top of my existing Homeserver/Fileserver and try to backup my users home dirs, which exits while creating the file list for backup.
I don't know exactly where this mount is coming from or what to remove to get rid of this.
I guess ist from lxdm or something similar.
And it seems dependent to this thread https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/odd-directory-that-cannot-be-stat-ed-by-root.103727/
So I tried to apply an exclude rule. Besides there is no clear example how to exclude a path, I searched the source code and guessed a few variants without success.
So I guess the exclude will be applied after creating the file list (file stat)?
Or I made a mistake with the exclude syntax?
Can someone please verify my findings and point me to the right direction or a workaround?
Thank you very much.
Best Florian
p.s. after logging out user florian completely the fuse mount has been removed and the folder is accessible by root (and the backup-process):
So the question is now: howto exclude this dir from backup to prevent backup abort for all backup-specs/-location when user is logged in.
thx.
