comment How do I write an rsync exclude for a directory tree with names containing spaces?
Good point, sorry. Nevertheless, I've just tried this and I still see the same error as before.

I cannot use double-quotes, as the environment variable in question ($OPTIONS) is already double-quoted.

it will also exclude Different Parent Directory/Another Directory, which isn't what I'm asking for.

Thanks. That's not really what I wanted, though; I wanted to exclude only that specific subdirectory - 'Some Parent Directory/Another Directory'.

comment Can I get rsnapshot to create LVM snapshots on a remote machine?
I'm not convinced that's any easier. How would host2 know when it could safely unmount/delete the LVM snapshot? (bearing in mind that rsnapshot doesn't necessarily take the same amount of time to execute each time, depending on which much data has changed)
