Hi,
Can anyone help me with the following:
I want to make a backup from my (AIX) system.
But I don't want to backup a couple of temp-directories.
I tried it with the X-option, but that didn't work.
I hope that someone can help me.
Thanks in advance.

bup-drecurse
bup-drecurse(1) General Commands Manual bup-drecurse(1)NAME
bup-drecurse - recursively list files in your filesystem
SYNOPSIS
bup drecurse [-x] [-q] [--exclude path] [--exclude-from filename] [--profile] <path>
DESCRIPTION
bup drecurse traverses files in the filesystem in a way similar to find(1). In most cases, you should use find(1) instead.
This program is useful mainly for testing the file traversal algorithm used in bup-index(1).
Note that filenames are returned in reverse alphabetical order, as in bup-index(1). This is important because you can't generate the hash
of a parent directory until you have generated the hashes of all its children. When listing files in reverse order, the parent directory
will come after its children, making this easy.
OPTIONS -x, --xdev, --one-file-system
don't cross filesystem boundaries.
-q, --quiet
don't print filenames as they are encountered. Useful when testing performance of the traversal algorithms.
--exclude=path
a path to exclude from the backup (can be used more than once)
--exclude-from=filename
a file that contains exclude paths (can be used more than once)
--profile
print profiling information upon completion. Useful when testing performance of the traversal algorithms.
EXAMPLE
bup drecurse -x /
SEE ALSO bup-index(1)BUP
Part of the bup(1) suite.
