Re: [BackupPC-users] BackupPC 4.1.1 Documentation

2017-04-05 Thread Craig Barratt
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

2017-04-05 Thread Michael McGregor
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!

This field is the number of hardlinks.
So you have entries >1, then you still have backups pointing to the v3 pool.

Try to find what backups are still in V3 format

leaders of a country who determine the policy, and it is always a 
simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or
a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship.
Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of
the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are 
being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and
exposing the country to danger.  It works the same in every country.

Yes.  Backuppc will basically start over.

Re: [BackupPC-users] Multiple issues on newly installed 4.1.0.

2017-04-05 Thread G.W. Haywood
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.

The log contains over 11,000 similar 'moveFileToOld' lines, each
seems to follow a 'delete' line.

Is this expected?
