Exclude a directory from backup.
Exclude a directory from backup.
Hello,
I want to use the backup option from the panel, but I need to exclude a massive directory (around 100GB of music that I have already backed up).
The path is:
Being music the folder to exclude.
How I have to put this exclusion in the panel?
I am trying a number of diferent options like /home/admin/music - /music - /admin/music, etc. but it's not working and the folder is included in the backup.
Thanks!!

Re: Exclude a directory from backup.
It's user directory you want to exclude. In your control panel -> backup -> backup exclusion -> press "cogwheel" to configure and go to "User Directories" section. There you can add name of directory music for example and save it.
