I attach it to the appvm, loop the luks container to /dev/loopX, cryptsetup luksOpen it, and mount then the /dev/mapper/backup . Then I use (as root) rsync -auv /backup/appvm-name /home/user/ . The data is 140G so I gave 150G to the appvm as private storage. The rsync fails after ~6GB of data transferred. Is this possble since the (standard install) LVM-thin cannot provide quickly enough disc space??
Alternatively I can start the appvm, pause it, attach its private.img to sys-usb and follow then the above procedure as root in sys-usb (this is how I made the backups, since I prefer doing them by hand). Is there some flaw in my procedure? Thank you, Bernhard -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
