tar backup

Hi,

I want to backup all file : /

but without : /sys/*

so I use the command : tar --exclude=sys/* -cvp -f /backup/fullBackup$(date -I).tar /

but the command also ignores the file : /usr/unclude/sys/*

How do just ignore /sys/* ?

Re: tar backup

If you haven't already sorted it out, I think, (from memory), you need --exclude=/sys which should do what you wanted.
