[BackupPC-users] Pool is 0.00GB comprising 0 files and 0 directories....
Hi,
I use BackupPC since many years without hassle. But something seems to
be broken now.
BackupPC 3.1 (source)
Debian Etch
xfs fs
Recently the pool was running full and I added some additional disks to the
raid volume. backuppc showed the pool size before as 0.00GB, but I didn't
realize that there might be a problem.
# Other info:
* 0 pending backup requests from last scheduled wakeup,
* 0 pending user backup requests,
* 0 pending command requests,
* Pool is 0.00GB comprising 0 files and 0 directories (as of 5/18 14:00),
* Pool hashing gives 0 repeated files with longest chain 0,
* Nightly cleanup removed 0 files of size 0.00GB (around 5/18 14:00),
* Pool file system was recently at 60% (5/27 08:56), today's max is 100%
(5/18 14:00) and yesterday's max was 100%.
$ grep TopDir /etc/BackupPC/config.pl
$Conf{TopDir} = '/data/BackupPC';
$ df -h | grep data
/dev/sdc 6,9T 4,1T 2,8T 60% /data/BackupPC
The pool and the pc directory are on the same filesystem, so that shouldn't be
a problem.
$ ls -l /data/BackupPC/
insgesamt 16
drwxrwxr-x 18 backuppc backuppc 134 2009-05-27 08:56 cpool
drwxrwxr-x 24 backuppc backuppc 16384 2009-05-27 08:56 pc
drwxr-x--- 2 backuppc backuppc 6 2009-05-18 13:12 trash
/data/BackupPC/ was the TopDir since I started with backuppc, and I sure
pooling/linking did work once.
logfile:
2009-05-18 14:00:02 Pool nightly clean removed 0 files of size 0.00GB
2009-05-18 14:00:02 Pool is 0.00GB, 0 files (0 repeated, 0 max chain, 0 max
links), 0 directories
2009-05-18 14:00:02 Cpool nightly clean removed 0 files of size 0.00GB
2009-05-18 14:00:02 Cpool is 0.00GB, 0 files (0 repeated, 0 max chain, 0 max
links), 4369 directories
BackupPC_nightly finished way too fast (5 sec) and does nothing.

BackupPC: Host Summary
Hosts with good Backups
There are 22 hosts that have been backed up, for a total of:
* 260 full backups of total size 31110.73GB (prior to pooling and
compression),
* 183 incr backups of total size 409.15GB (prior to pooling and
compression).
I've no idea what is going on. The clients are backed up and I can access the
backups and restore them.
Any idea what to check next?

For what it's worth, this line is the only change that is needed.
Replacing return if ( !opendir(my $fh, $path) ); above just makes your
log file larger.

The biggest reason would be the purpose of the forum gateway in the first place, which is that some people prefer the forum interface in a community like this one. But oddly, they only prefer to ask questions that way. Isn't is a bit strange that the community you claim to attract almost never supplies answers through the forum? If they did, the mail list response would be somewhat irrelevant. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com -- Register Now for Creativity and Technology (CaT), June 3rd, NYC.
