Problem with affa backup to usb HDD [solved]
« on: November 13, 2017, 08:28:27 AM »
Server 9.2, affa and usb device for backup as never can be sure which laptops will be available for backup at scheduled times, and too hard to teach how to do.

affa service runs fine, but it keeps adding the mounted folder ie /mnt/affadevice to the backup every day thus increasing the size!. How do I exclude this directory from the backup?

I can open the door but you have to walk through it.
