I just noticed one of my servers has not had a successful full backup for over 60 days. Incremental backups still succeed.
Full backups fail after 2-4 hours with: Got fatal error during xfer (Child exited prematurely) Right now I've got a full backup running (according to the Web UI) but if I look on the server, I can see the ssh process that is the child of the BackupPC dump process is defunct: ps shows: backuppc PID PPID 0 Jun30 ? 00:00:03 [ssh] <defunct> So I know this full backup will fail as well once BackupPC realizes the child is dead. BackupPC version 3.1.0 on CentOS 5.5 (64-bit) I'm going to update to CentOS 5.6 and restart the full backup, and put an strace on the ssh process... trying to figure out why it goes defunct.
