Hi there

I am wondering if it has been fixed to be able to exclude backups.

I noticed during my vesta and myvesta time that one of the clients are unable to be backed up due to the amount of data. It generates an error log:
needed space on disk : 7646676 megabytes
which of course makes sense.

Last successful backup was:
.2020-12-14_05-15-05.tar
Backup Size:1.32 gb
Type:local
Run Time:4 minutes

which is quite some time ago, and the problem is, that all other data from that client is not backed up.

The large amount of data is located in; public_html and the excludes I've made look like this:

Web domains:
XXXX.XXXX.net:public_html
XXXY.XXXX.net:public_html

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Ahhh, exclude probably works, but 'calculation' occurs before backup start, and 'calculation' takes whole account size, it can not measure size without excluded folder.
Well, the only way to skip wrong calculation is to make option that will skip calculation.
I will try to make it in some of future releases.

See that makes perfect sense.

Sounds great dpeca - No rush really, it's more of a nice to have feature for the clients. I do external backups with another backup tool.

Thanks again for the effort you put into this.
