hi all, i have this problem. I'm backing up several pcs in compressed form. The backups are scheduled and done ok, even the aged backups apears to be removed in the pcs specific logs file, like this: ..... 2008-12-02 01:00:05 incr backup started back to 2008-11-30 01:00:01 (backup #25) for directory /home 2008-12-02 01:33:04 incr backup 27 complete, 174 files, 764599209 bytes, 0 xferErrs (0 bad files, 0 bad shares, 0 other) 2008-12-02 01:33:04 removing incr backup 20 .....
The problem is that my disk is filling at a constant rate (my backups daily dosn't change so much) and should bo somewhat constant. I'll realized that the cpool directory is not cleaning by some reason, the log: 2008-12-02 01:00:01 Running 2 BackupPC_nightly jobs from 0..15 (out of 0..15) 2008-12-02 01:00:01 Running BackupPC_nightly -m 0 127 (pid=30514) 2008-12-02 01:00:01 Running BackupPC_nightly 128 255 (pid=30515) 2008-12-02 01:00:01 Next wakeup is 2008-12-03 01:00:00 2008-12-02 01:00:04 Started incr backup on localhost (pid=30516, share=/) 2008-12-02 01:00:44 Finished admin1 (BackupPC_nightly 128 255) 2008-12-02 01:00:46 BackupPC_nightly now running BackupPC_sendEmail 2008-12-02 01:01:22 Finished admin (BackupPC_nightly -m 0 127) 2008-12-02 01:01:22 Pool nightly clean removed 0 files of size 0.00GB 2008-12-02 01:01:22 Pool is 0.00GB, 0 files (0 repeated, 0 max chain, 0 max links), 1 directories 2008-12-02 01:01:22 Cpool nightly clean removed 0 files of size 0.00GB 2008-12-02 01:01:22 Cpool is 0.00GB, 0 files (0 repeated, 0 max chain, 0 max links), 4369 directories .... As you can see the cpool doesn't look to have deleted anything, even it says it has 0 Gb. I did a fresh instalation of backuppc in debian, all data is in /var/lib/backuppc and all permissions are ok (automatically set in the install). The backuppc version is 3.0. I allready have a backuppc 2.6 version in another machine, same data config, permissions, etc. working perfectly. thanks in advance -------------------------------------------------------------------- Ing.
