NetWorker 9.2.1.5 global directive problems

Hi there,

we've got a fresh installed NetWorker 9.2.1.5 environment running on CentOS 7.5 Linux. We have five database servers running Oracle 10g on it. The database files are stored in the following folders:

Server 1 => /oracle1

Server 2 => /oracle2

...

Server 5 => /oracle5

For the database backup we're using the NMDA Module so we have this and the NetWorker client software (9.2.1.5) installed on this systems (CentOS 5.11). I want to do a file system backup for this systems as well and don't want to save the oracle folders because they are very big. I decided to create a directive that looks as follows (due to NetWorker Admin Guide):

<< */oracle[1-5] >>

+skip: *

In the client setup I chose this directive for each client and set the save set to All.

When I start the Workflow for this group the backup action monitor shows the following save sets:

Server 1:

/

/boot

/oracle1

Server 2:

/

/boot

/oracle2

and so on...

It seems, that the directive is not working. I can't find anything in the logs that says the client tries to use the directive.

I also created a directive for each client because I wasn't sure about the new wildcard syntax for the folders:

<< /oracle1 >>

+skip: *

Can someone please help me with this?

Regards

Hendrik
