[RFE] Add exclude directory option to undercloud backup
Last modified: 2018-08-29 12:36:50 EDT
Description of problem: The 'openstack undercloud backup' command included with OSP13 accepts an "include" argument for the file system portion that defaults to /home/stack. Since customers generally keep overcloud images in /home/stack and that data generally doesn't need to be backed up, it would be nice to have an 'exclude' switch for exempting paths such as the images directory from backup. I would expect to be able to include /home/stack while excluding /home/stack/images or similar.

I'm trying to verify this feature, but after running following command: openstack undercloud backup --exclude-path /home/stack/virt I still see this folder included into the backup: [stack@undercloud-0 ~]$ tar tf filesystem-20180801013316.tar | grep '/virt' home/stack/virt/ home/stack/virt/network/ home/stack/virt/network/three-nics-vlans/ home/stack/virt/network/three-nics-vlans/osp11/ home/stack/virt/network/three-nics-vlans/osp11/ceph-storage.yaml home/stack/virt/network/three-nics-vlans/osp11/controller.yaml home/stack/virt/network/three-nics-vlans/osp11/cinder-storage.yaml home/stack/virt/network/three-nics-vlans/osp11/swift-storage.yaml home/stack/virt/network/three-nics-vlans/osp11/controller-v6.yaml home/stack/virt/network/three-nics-vlans/osp11/compute.yaml home/stack/virt/network/three-nics-vlans/legacy/ home/stack/virt/network/three-nics-vlans/legacy/ceph-storage.yaml home/stack/virt/network/three-nics-vlans/legacy/controller.yaml home/stack/virt/network/three-nics-vlans/legacy/cinder-storage.yaml home/stack/virt/network/three-nics-vlans/legacy/swift-storage.yaml home/stack/virt/network/three-nics-vlans/legacy/controller-v6.yaml home/stack/virt/network/three-nics-vlans/legacy/compute.yaml home/stack/virt/network/predictable-ips.yaml home/stack/virt/network/network-environment-v6.yaml home/stack/virt/network/network-environment.yaml home/stack/virt/network/predictable-ips-v6.yaml home/stack/virt/network/network-environment.yaml.orig home/stack/virt/debug.yaml home/stack/virt/internal.yaml home/stack/virt/enable-tls.yaml home/stack/virt/inject-trust-anchor.yaml home/stack/virt/overcloud-privkey.pem home/stack/virt/overcloud-cacert.pem home/stack/virt/public_vip.yaml home/stack/virt/hostnames.yml home/stack/virt/nodes_data.yaml home/stack/virt/docker-images.yaml Changes seems to be in the puddle 2018-07-30.2 (undercloud) [stack@undercloud-0 ~]$ rpm -q openstack-tripleo-common openstack-tripleo-common-8.6.3-5.el7ost.noarch (undercloud) [stack@undercloud-0 ~]$ rpm -q python-tripleoclient python-tripleoclient-9.2.3-2.el7ost.noarch
