Sadly I'm seeing the opposite: most backups are failing (aborted by signal=PIPE / Child exited prematurely) and they especially seem to be failing when the nightly/trashClean jobs are also running (which wasn't possible under 2.1). Under 2.1 everything worked just fine. :(

You are probably short on RAM when you add in the nightly run. Tuning down the number of concurrent backups might help. That probably shouldn't be higher than the number of processors in the server anyway unless you have some low-bandwidth connections to handle.

Then why is MaxBackups set to 4 by default? I don't think 4 processors are the standard yet... Still, I used BackupPC with MaxBackups set to 4 under 2.1 and the server only has a single Pentium 4 processor. I have now taken MaxBackups down to 2, but we're still seeing a lot of failing backups.
