Backup¶

-c, --cluster¶

--dc¶

A list of datacenter glob patterns separated by a comma, e.g. ‘dc1,!otherdc*’ used to specify the datacenters to include or exclude. The following syntax for glob patterns is supported:

• ‘*’ - matches any number of any characters including none

• ‘?’ - matches any single character

• ‘[abc]’ - matches one character given in the bracket

Patterns are evaluated from left to right. If a pattern starts with ‘!’ it unselects items that were selected by previous patterns i.e. ‘a?,!aa’ selects ab but not aa.

Default value: []

--dry-run¶

Validates and prints backup information without actually scheduling a backup.

Default value: false

--enabled¶

Not enabled tasks are not executed and are hidden from the task list.

• ‘*’ - matches any number of any characters including none

• ‘?’ - matches any single character

• ‘[abc]’ - matches one character given in the bracket
