I have a host machine that was backing up fine until recently. I got an email stating there was trouble, and I found that the backup timed out. The machine is on the local network and only has about 30 MB of data being backed up.
I'm backing up /etc, /home, and /usr/local. The trouble is with /etc, because if I choose to only back up /home and /usr/local it works fine. Any time I try to back up /etc, BackupPC maxes out my cpu with the "dump" process. /etc has less than 10 MB of data in it, so it should finish in seconds. Any ideas? The only thing I recall changing recently is that I'm using DNS now instead of adding machines to /etc/hosts. DNS seems to be working correctly (as evidenced by my backups working if I remove /etc from the list of directories to be backed up). -Rob ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
