Backing up an iTunes library

I'm backing you my master iTunes library to a sparseimage file on my NAS. To do this I created a SD dset script that includes only the iTunes path and excludes everything else... then set it to run with that rule whenever I manually mount the sparseimage.

I just peeked at the setup and it's been a while since I did this, so the details are sketchy.

My iTunes music dir is located in the root of a different internal drive and outside of ~/Music/iTunes/ ... which can be done via iTunes Advanced preferences.

This is the script xml:

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
	<key>Class</key>
	<string>Composite</string>
	<key>Description</key>
	<string>Backup iTunes Library</string>
	<key>Directives</key>
	<array>
		<dict>
			<key>Directive</key>
			<string>clone</string>
			<key>Item</key>
			<string>Master iTunes Library</string>
		</dict>
	</array>
	<key>Include Directives</key>
	<array>
		<string>Exclude all files.dset</string>
	</array>
</dict>
</plist>
