That is a good suggestion. We will definitely take that under consideration. The other option is to include VMs more carefully with more specific wildcarded names.
If ever time permits it would be nice eventually to be ab;e to process REGEX expressions fully for both includes and excludes. :-)
Currently, we are more focused on including VMs using a much more flexible regex mechanism, which should make exclusions a lot easier and not require them to be wildcarded.
This feature will be appearing in the next release, which will support regex to both include and exclude VMs. :-)
Would'n it be nice to be able to put the vm's names with wildcards into "exclude" variable? I'd like to exclude all non-production vm's from backing up. I already named test and staging machines as "Snn-" (staging) and "Xnn-" (test ones) so I'd like to exclude them (14 in total) without specifying line by line... When I use wildcards in the exclude variable, script exits with an error (as the vm hasn't been found).
