I found that trying to do a full restore of / seems to break down here: Sending /vmlinuz (remote=vmlinuz) type = 2 restore l 777 0/0 30 /vmlinuz -> boot/vmlinuz-3.19.0-33-generic Remote[1]: rsync: mknod "/dev/pts/1" failed: Operation not permitted (1) Remote[1]: rsync: mknod "/dev/pts/11" failed: Operation not permitted (1) Read EOF: Tried again: got 0 bytes Done: 215256 files, 5884382843 bytes restore failed: Unable to read 7237443 bytes
It seems I need to do more research as to what folders in the / directory can be restored and which shouldn't. I've also discovered that although a restore of, say a particular file or directory, may finish long before the backuppc gui has updated the status. In addition, I have found little to no issues restoring large directories to temporary folders on the client computer, rather than overriding the existing directories during the restore process. I am eager to see what happens when I replace the folders on the system with the ones sent by my backuppc. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by vur...@me.com via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Go from Idea to Many App Stores Faster with Intel(R) XDK Give your users amazing mobile app experiences with Intel(R) XDK.
