James,

It looks like it actually performed full backups of some hosts (kw33,
kw109, kw124, kw9) normally between 1am and 3am, then linked them at 4am.
The BackupPC_nightly task took the next ~8 hours, during which no backups
occurred. Then, it tried to link the same hosts again...

I'm assuming that the first BackupPC_link for those hosts failed for some
reason since it's trying again... can you show us the last bad xferlog for
one of those hosts, if it exists, or any lines in the plain xferlog that
don't look normal?

Oh, and backuppc is almost certainly not having trouble with the size of
your filesystem. I'm using it with a 9TB partition without problems. Are
you confusing your pool, which if you're using compression should be empty,
with your Cpool, which has ~1TB?

Oh, also can you verify that you're not running out of inodes on your
filesystem? What's the output of "df -hi"?

Cheers, Stephen

Your eyes are weary from staring at the CRT. You feel sleepy.
Notice how restful it is to watch the cursor blink. Close your eyes.
The opinions stated above are yours. You cannot imagine why you
ever felt otherwise.
