Wildcard for "all VMs except..."?

Hi,

I have a test system with 10+ VMs on it and VMs being created/removed quite often, so using xsibackup in the default mode to backup all VMs is ideal... except for one thing - a couple of the VMs have data or temp disks that are too large to back up.

Is there a way to say "backup all VMs EXCEPT these disks"?  If I use the "VM1!disk2" syntax, only VM1 is backed up, excluding disk2.  Something like "*,VM1!disk2" would be perfect (except I tried that and it doesn't work ;-) )

Thanks!

Jeff

We had already taken this feature request into account for future releases, but it will be added to the Pro version only. It will most probably come out this summer with XSIBACKUP-PRO 10
