Hi everyone. I'm trying to backup all the data of a backuppc server. I saw that backuppc 3.0 has a script to copy the directory pc/
So first I used rsync to copy everything except the directory pc/ rsync -aH --exclude /opt/backuppc/files/pc/ /opt/backuppc/ \ [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/opt/backuppc/ This part works well, it doesn't take too much memory. Now I'm trying to copy the directory pc with the script. I'd like to copy it directly without using a temporary file. So I tried this command: sudo -u backuppc BackupPC_tarPCCopy /opt/backuppc/files/pc/ | gzip -c \ | ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] "(cd /opt/backuppc/files/pc && tar xzf -)" it seems to work but on the sender side (the server I want to backup) I've got plenty of error messages like this (in french): tar: ./127.0.0.1/149/f%2f/fvar/fspool/fsquid/f03/attrib: ne peut établir un lien vers `cpool/3/5/3/3530222493619acd2106c996347e9034': Aucun fichier ou répertoire de ce type I've got the same error messages if I do something like that: sudo -u backuppc BackupPC_tarPCCopy /opt/backuppc/files/pc > pc.tar scp -rP pc.tar [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp then ssh into the remote server and extracting the archive like that: cd /opt/backuppc/files/pc tar xf /tmp/pc.tar another strange thing is that when I have a message like this tar: ./127.0.0.1/149/f%2f/fvar/fspool/fsquid/f03/attrib: ne peut établir un lien vers `cpool/3/5/3/3530222493619acd2106c996347e9034': Aucun fichier ou répertoire de ce type The file cpool/3/5/3/3530222493619acd2106c996347e9034 exists on the receiver side (as I used rsync to copy the pool before), so I don't understand the error. So my questions are Does anyone know why these errors occures? Am I using the script correctly? Anyone already tried something like that? Thanks in advance.
