Pattern

• An asterisk, *, matches any number of characters (including none).
• Two asterisks, **, works like * but crosses directory boundaries. This syntax is generally used for matching complete paths.
• A question mark, ?, matches exactly one character.
• Braces specify a collection of subpatterns. For example:
  {sun,moon,stars} matches "sun", "moon", or "stars".
  {temp*,tmp*} matches all strings beginning with "temp" or "tmp".
• Square brackets convey a set of single characters or, when the hyphen character (-) is used, a range of characters. For example:
  [aeiou] matches any lowercase vowel.
  [0-9] matches any digit.
  [A-Z] matches any uppercase letter.
  [a-z,A-Z] matches any uppercase or lowercase letter.
  Within the square brackets, *, ?, and \ match themselves.
• All other characters match themselves.
• To match *, ?, or the other special characters, you can escape them by using the backslash character, \. For example: \\ matches a single backslash, and \? matches the question mark.
  
• The directory boundary is \\ on Windows, / on Mac and Linux.
• If the pattern includes ** or directory boundaries, matching will be done against complete path; Otherwise matching will be done against the last path element (file name or directory name).

Pattern Examples

Storage

Setup a storage which you save backup data.

Local File System

    "Statement": [
        {
            "Sid": "statement1",
            "Effect": "Allow",

                "s3:GetObject",
                "s3:PutObject",
                "s3:ListBucket",
                "s3:DeleteObject"
            ],
            "Resource": [
                "arn:aws:s3:::<Your Bucket Name>",
                "arn:aws:s3:::<Your Bucket Name>/*"
            ]
        },
        {
            "Sid": "statement2",
            "Effect": "Allow",

                "s3:ListAllMyBuckets"
            ],

Options

Maintenance

The maintenance function is displayed when you select an existing project. It is not displayed when creating a new project.

Delete Index

Use this function when an index error occurs. Deleting the index rebuilds the index on the next backup. In addition, there are side effects as follows.

• The data necessary for rebuilding the index are gotten from the backup destination. If you are using object storage etc., download processing will occur. However, it does not download all the backed up data.
• All files are processed as "Created". Since the contents of all files are read in the same way as the first backup, processing may take time. However, the backed up data will not be created in the backup destination.
