how to skip folder file backing and restoring

[vfolk30]

Hi ,
There is any possibility to exclude the folder/directory when you are restoring ?

I am getting below issue because my .snapshot directory is read-only

ignoring error for /data/myclaim/.snapshot: UtimesNano: read-only file system

There is any way in restore job to provide arguement to exclude the directory

Hi @vfolk30

We currently have an issue open for excluding files during backups: #317

You mention that you want to exclude it during restore. Does that mean you want it included in the backup anyway? Because if it's not backed up in the first place you won't have to exclude it during the restore. :)

you only see the problem when you do restoration.
I am happy if I can exclude during the backup then it wont make any problem for restore.

Any progress on (#317)

We haven't started with #317 yet, but your input helps us to prioritize the features better.

In my case I can not disable .snapshot directory from my nfs storage.
Such features can help users and performance would be better .
