[BackupPC-users] Write an archive directly to a remote tape device
I have set up a machine to run BackupPC, backing up four other hosts. I
would like to configure Backup PC to write the tar.gz archive directly
to tape on another machine. The way I do it now is to first dump the
archive to the disk on which the BackupPC service is running, and then
if use a shell script to write the archives to the remote tape
(tar -c [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/dev/tape host.nnn.tar.gz)
This way, the tape contains a tar.gz file (actually tar-ing twice) and I
need a lot of free disk space on the machine on which I run BackupPC
I would like BackupPC to tar directly to the remote tape.
I'm not sure how I should do this. I've tried to set
$Conf{ArchiveDest} ='[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/dev/tape';
but then I get an mkdir error. It seems that the ArchiveDest can not be
specifed in the user@host:remotedir way.
Any suggestions on how I can solve this?

[BackupPC-users] can I define per-PC directories to backup?
Title: can I define per-PC directories to backup? I just installed BackupPC 2.1.2 and I can't find how to define per-PC based directories to backup. At the moment it just backups the same directories from all hosts. The web page mentions that this should be possible. Is it only in the version 3 beta? - Mikael - Using Tomcat but need to do more?

[BackupPC-users] Failure to backup over rsync
I'm having trouble getting backups to work with rsync. I have two
hosts using smb that are working (sort of), and two with rsync that are
not. Here's the log file I get (the machine name is 'sol'):
Contents of file /var/backuproot/pc/sol/LOG, modified
2006-11-01 12:21:42
2006-11-01 12:21:42 full backup started for directory /
The per-machine config file is very straightforward, but maybe I'm
missing a setting?
Contents of file /var/backuproot/pc/sol/config.pl,
modified 2006-10-24 02:26:31
$Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsync';
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = '/';
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = '/proc';
$Conf{FullPeriod} = 6.97; # -1 or -2 to disable backups
The status is:
sol
panther
0
0.00
0
idle
(Unable to read 4 bytes)
For whatever reason, it always fails with '(Unable to read 4 bytes)'.
Which is weird, because the ./sol/new directory has 502MB of files in
it, but no entries in the backups table at all. My other host has
identical issues. By the way, SSH keys are set up so I have tested the
obvious things, and backups are mostly working. But how do I debug
this?
Any ideas on where to start?
Thanks,
JH

Hi Craig, It does not look like any of the files are changing during the backup. Also, I think this only started happening since we upgraded BackupPC from 2 to 3.

The goal here is to keep the schedule at the same time of day.
With an hourly WakeupSchedule, 6.97 is a full week, minues a

hour each week.
If you use 7 (exactly a week) it is likely that the backup will slip
an hour. For example, if the WakeupSchedule includes 1pm, and the
last full backup started at 1pm plus a few seconds, then this week
at 1pm if BackupPC_dump starts a few second earlier, then the
difference is just less than 7.0, so the full won't happen that
hour.
What if I want to backup the server monthly? Can I
just put it 30 as
fullperiod?
You should do 29.97. That will be every 30 days, not exactly
monthly but close enough.

Re: [BackupPC-users] can I define per-PC directories to backup?
Mikael writes: I just installed BackupPC 2.1.2 and I can't find how to define per-PC based directories to backup. At the moment it just backups the same directories from all hosts. The web page mentions that this should be possible. Is it only in the version 3 beta? You can do this in 2.x and 3.x. You need to create a config.pl file in a particular host's directory (eg: /data/BackupPC/pc/HOST/config.pl). You only need to put settings in that file that are different (override) the master config.pl. Craig - Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
