I can't be responsible for your data, but try something like this (based on
your email from July 24):
FileSet {
Name = server_fileset
Include {
Options {
exclude = yes
# No need to backup cached apt files (but keep directories!!)
regexfile = "^/var/cache/apt/.*\.(bin|deb)$"
regexfile = ...
regexdir = ...
regexdir = ...
regexdir = ...
}
Options {
signature = SHA1
##sparse = yes
xattrsupport = yes
aclsupport = yes
noatime = yes
checkfilechanges = yes
}
File = "/"
File = "/boot"
File = "/var"
File = "/mnt/..."
File = "/mnt/..."
File = "/mnt/..."
}
Exclude {
File = "/var/cache/apache2/mod_disk_cache"
File = "/var/tmp"
File = "/mnt/..."
File = "/mnt/..."
File = "/mnt/..."
}
}

All important backups must be tested periodically using restore!

I don't think this change will cause a full backup -- only changes to File=
and Plugin= lines will do that.
