[BackupPC-users] Backing up datas on a NFS mount
Hello all, I'm trying to set up a backkuppc server running on a server and backing up datas from hosts of our local network on another server. I thought the best way to do that was to create a nfs mount point and to modify backuppc to save datas on this mount point instead of /var/lib/backuppc (my distro is a Debian one). But it doesn't work, I have many problems. Is there another way to do that, or could someone explain me the way to make it work ?

[BackupPC-users] Backing up data on a NFS mount
Hello all, I've already used backuppc for test purpose, and found it's a great product. Now, I'm trying to set up a "true" backuppc server. My problem is that i can't backup datas on the server where backuppc is running, so I try to set up a NFS mount where backuppc will store datas. I made a hard link from the backuppc default data dir to the nfs mount, but backuppc doesn't start. If I use the backuppc default data dir, everything seems to work. I then stopped backuppc, moved the data from the data dir to the NFS mount, made a hard link to the NFS mount , and then tried to restart backuppc => fails (open pidfile /var/lib/backuppc/log/BackupPC.pid: Permission denied). Where's my mistake ? Thanks, Alain --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.

[BackupPC-users] Windows XP reboots while rsyncing
Hi all, We have two Windows XP hosts that sometimes reboots while backuppc is backing up datas from these hosts. The backup method chosen on both hosts is rsyncd. It seems that the problem occurs while running a X11 server on these hosts. Has anyone ever seen this problem ?

[BackupPC-users] Errors while saving /etc and /home directories
Hi all, I'm trying to set up a new backuppc server, but when backuppc saves the localhost's /etc dir, it indicates lots of errors like these : /bin/tar: ./ppp/peers: Cannot savedir: Permission denied ... /bin/tar: ./cups/cupsd.conf: Cannot open: Permission denied ... and so on. If I ask backuppc to save the /home dir I got the same problem. Is there anyway to fix this ?

I reply to my question: by re-reading the backuppc FAQ, I modified the tarClientCmd as indicated to use sudo, and that worked. Sorry for the noise...

[BackupPC-users] Restore of localhost fails: using tar + ssh instead of tar
Hi all,
I'm using BackupPC on a debian sarge server since a while, and I have to
restore some files on the server.
Each time I try a restore, it fails with the error: ssh_askpass:
exec(/usr/bin/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory
It's strange because I backup my local server using tar method without ssh.
Here is my localhost.pl file:
#
# Local server backup of /etc as user backuppc
#
$Conf{XferMethod} = 'tar';
$Conf{TarShareName} = ['/home', '/etc'];
$Conf{TarClientCmd} = '/usr/bin/env LANG=fr /usr/bin/sudo $tarPath -c -v
-f - -C $shareName'
. ' --totals';
$Conf{TarIncrArgs} = '--newer=$incrDate $fileList+';
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = '/home/users';
$Conf{BlackoutPeriods} = [
{
hourBegin => 8.0,
hourEnd => 20.0,
weekDays => [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
},
];
Any suggestion is welcomed !
Thanks,
Alain

Depending on your RHEL version, you have to install the corresponding EPEL repository, for example : # rpm -Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-5.noarch.rpm Then : # yum install backuppc It installs a rather old version of BackupPC (3.1, current is 3.2.1), but if you don't mind, it is the easiest way.

Re: [BackupPC-users] Installation of BackupPC
Hi Jiahwei,
As you can see, you have a problem with a hardlink. The default location
for BachpPC data pool is /var/lib/BackupPC. I guess you tried to change
this location to another one, by setting a hard link. I tried this
myself, and it failed. Whad I did, is to mount an external storage under
/backup, copied the content of /var/lib/BackupPC inside (with the same
owner, backuppc, and rights), and change the configuration in
/etc/BackupPC/config.pl :
#$Conf{TopDir} = '/var/lib/BackupPC/';
$Conf{TopDir} = '/backup';
Hope this helps.
Alain

In fact, the error message I got (in Xfer log), was NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED. As the above command was working, I knew there was no problems with my credentials. So I did some research, and found this Ubuntu bug report. As my Samba version is recent (and needed for me, as I have a 2008 R2 domain, and joined the server using kerberos and ads), I thought it could be the problem, and tried. And it succeeded. But you are right, you have to verify first that your credentials are correct, because the context and problem may be different, and the solution not the same in other cases.

Hi Jiahwei,
I wonder if the line $Conf{BackupFilesOnly} = { '*' => [ 'C$' ] is
correct. I think it is C$ first, then '/some_folder'.
If you want to backup all C$, I think the preceeding line is sufficient
$Conf{SmbShareName} = [ 'C$' ];
Personnally, I want to backup only some folders inside F$, so I use the
second option with, in my case (in the web interface) :
BackupFilesOnly : F$, then add : /My_Docs (to backup only the folder
My_Docs).
It is working for me on a win 7 64 bits PC.
Hopes this helps.
Alain

With decent budget, I will chose SAS over eSATA. Cheers, alain -Original Message- From: Chris Baker [mailto:cba...@intera.com] Sent: 19 octobre 2010 15:36 To: 'General list for user discussion, questions and support' Subject: [BackupPC-users] eSATA drive enclosure We backup to an eSATA drive enclosure. It holds two eSATA drives of 1 TB each. We swap two enclosures offsite about twice a month. We are running out of space and need to purchase a new eSATA drive enclosure which holds two drives. I am thinking of getting 2 TB drives, as they are the largest available. Does anyone have any good or bad experiences with any particular eSATA drive enclosure or drives? What ones would anyone here recommend or avoid?
