Re: [BackupPC-users] BackupPC 4.1.1 Documentation
Michael, I updated backuppc.sourceforge.net. The new project page is backuppc.github.io/backuppc. I need to add release links to that site.

[BackupPC-users] BackupPC 4.1.1 Documentation
1) I'm super stoked to see that BackupPC 4 is back under active development and has stable releases being produced! 2) The documentation on the website (http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/) says it is for version 4.0.0. Is that documentation still current for version 4.1.1? If not, is there new documentation somewhere else that you can point me to? I'm very excited to start installing BackupPC 4.1.1 on my new backup server today and hopefully I don't run into any problems! -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot___ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List:https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki:http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/

Re: [BackupPC-users] Buying larger drive
Yes. Backuppc will basically start over. Cheers, mph On April 5, 2017 2:30:48 PM David Williams wrote: Quick question.

Re: [BackupPC-users] Multiple issues on newly installed 4.1.0.
Hi there, Briefly I have Windows server with hosting more than one share, my first backup attempt was to back up only the 'C$' share (about 6GB of user data) and day or so later I added the 'N$' share to the BackupPC configuration. That was about a week ago. Last night's backup started at 21:00. After more than 14, hours one process is still using 100% of a CPU: PID USER PR NIVIRTRESSHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 6352 ged 20 0 109364 68124 4568 R 100.0 1.7 449:24.60 /usr/bin/perl /usr/local/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC_tarExtract -h hostname -s N$ -f It's trying to do a first full backup of the N$ share. The share contains 57GB of user data. The backup machine has 4GB of RAM, free space on the backup partition is about 300GB. The network is 1GBit/s Ethernet, not usually otherwise very busy and certainly not at night.
