#55 Issue closed
: Make component-prefix mandatory in layout code¶
Labels: enhancement
, needs sponsorship
dagwieers opened issue at 2012-04-05 13:15:¶
Currently the EXCLUDE_*
variables only require a component-prefix in
those cases where it is ambiguous. By requiring all components to be
prefixed, we remove the inconsistency from the syntax.So instead of
/dev/vg_data
, it would become vg:vg_data
Example:
EXCLUDE_BACKUP=( "fs:/data" )
EXCLUDE_RECREATE=( "vg:vg_san" )
EXCLUDE_RESTORE=( "fs:/tmp" )
PS This affects #54

@jhoekx as far I can see in the current code "fs:/mnt-point" is already
being processed by the exclude code parts:
./layout/prepare/default/61_exclude_from_restore.sh
,
./layout/save/default/34_generate_mountpoint_device.sh
However, I couldn't find a link to "vg:vg_san" (guessing in
./layout/save/default/31_include_exclude.sh
)
Am I missing something? Or can we close this issue?

@dagwieers @jhoekx Do you still see the need of this request, or can we close it?
