      /dev/*
/sys/*
/proc/*
/var/cache/yum/*
/lost+found/*

/var/lib/docker-storage.btrfs/root/.local/share/gvfs-metadata/*

      To exclude other directories or files, append them to the rsync_excludes_linux.txt file. For example, to exclude all content on the data disk attached to /mnt/disk1, configure the rsync_excludes_linux.txt file as follows:

      /dev/*
/sys/*
/proc/*
