I'm running BackupPC V3.1 "Unfortunately" I've running a patched version ;) to make yearly backups and do not remove partial backups until a successfull backup is finished. So, maybee, it is my fault but I didn't believe that ;)

The analyzing performs on this backup-device. 3010068 files in 4096 directories checked, 3538 had wrong digests, of these 2 zero-length. Allways most of the 3538 files I'm found in /var/lib/backuppc/pc and they can be simply renamed. But some files seems to have special problems. e.g. of files with wrong MD5-names as well as my analyzis (so far): 1) I can't find the inode in /var/lib/backuppc/pc. I would believe BackupPC_nightly will remove this file 144312220 -rw-r----- 2 backuppc backuppc 3976 20.

But first I'ld like to understand what's happend :) Also interesting. All files from 2012, found by Holgers script, are top level attrib files. The strange things only happens with older files. -- Don't Panic ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.
