Yes. > You might have set the purge to either logarithmic or simple cut backup older than, let's say 7 days. So your Sbackup snapshot might have fall into those conditions and thus have been removed. I do not think so. I was careful to set the purging to logarithmic, as I normally use. In my other report, I mention that I fear that the purge settings were not saved. If that was the case, I think that the default should have been used, which if I am not wrong is set to 30 days, not 7, so nothing should have been deleted. >Anyway, what think you should do is setting a new test folder, when you play with options of any backup software (that has a purge capability). Yes, I was too hasty... Regarding the next questions: * the incremental backups were physically removed from the hard disk * as far as versions are concerned, as stated above, I use Ubuntu 8.10 and I update it regularly. On March, 2nd, I explicitely updated it, then I uninstalled sbackup and installed the Nssbackup version that was available on the PPA in packaged (.deb) form. I saw the error messages you mention in the log, and I also tried to investigate the reason for them, but I could not guess. And yes, it may be that some (or may) backups were unfinished, most likely because the computer was switched off during the backup process. When I go home I will send the configuration files.
