I'm quite happy with borgbackup as a secondary backup method aside BackupPC and wouldn't go back to rsnapshot and alike. Borgbackup is IMO fast, does deduplication, compression encryption with relatively little effort -- even offsite. And its "pool" of chunks is quite easy to copy. I didn't try borg-rsyncimport which is advertised as "can import existing rsync+hardlink or rsnapshot based backups into a borgbackup repository." Nonetheless I wouldn't want to miss BackupPC.

At least an idea to get the same file system to a bigger disk: dd -- or anything else for cloning a partition. I migrated a full 1TB partition via dd to a 2.2TB relatively fast -- from a remote VM to a local host, the throughput was limited by that VM anyway. I only had to resize it afterwards. The main drawback of that method is, that you would be stuck with the same file system type.

That got me to question my "config.pl" and have a look on the host's config because the Xferlog was missing any "Sent exclude" -- that made me ask the right questions. And brought the solution which indeed had nothing to do with syntax: Normally I only use the global settings as long as possible -- I really miss a central SPOT (single point of truth) -- 1. I must have set the _erroneous_, new excludes once at the host -- "override" gets set 2. then removed the excludes at the host's config via the CGI, _but_ missed to disable the "override" 3. Whatever settings I made and tested globally got overridden by the now non-existent/empty excludes *argh* ... and starting to edit the text file directly at least in this case made me _less_ aware of the host-specific settings.

Ok, I reread the section "INCLUDE/EXCLUDE PATTERN RULES" of the rsync man page in hope to grasp the patterns. There it says: " a trailing "dir_name/***" will match both the directory (as if "dir_name/" had been specified) and everything in the directory (as if "dir_name/**" had been specified). This behavior was added in version 2.6.7. " So, to my understanding tmp/*** (and all the other dirs accordingly) should be the correct pattern.

Thanks for pointing to the importance of the trailing slash!

[BackupPC-users] rsyncd excludes problem (3.2.1)
Hello everybody,
my exclude list seems to be defunct since adding a few absolute paths
via the web interface. Recently(?) /tmp subdirectories and absolute
paths (/anonuser... see below) are filling up the discs.
XferMethod is rsyncd, shouldn't '*/tmp' avoid this?
Did a restart of backuppc after every change.
>From the config.pl:
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = {
'*' => [
'*/tmp',
'*/.cache',
'*/temp',
'*/Cache',
'*/cache',
'/anonuser1/usenet-de/per-group',
'/anonuser2/sub-dir1/sub-dir2/models',
'/anonuser3/downloads',
'*/privat*',
'*/ImapMail',
'*.iso',
'*.ISO',
'*/.macromedia',
'*/.local/share/Trash',
'*.ogg',
'*.OGG',
'*.mp3',
'*.MP3',
'*.mp4',
'*.MP4'
]
};
I've also tried putting the new paths to an explicitly defined share:
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = {
'*' => [
'*/tmp',
'*/.cache',
'*/temp',
'*/Cache',
'*/cache'
],
'home' => [
'/anonuser1/usenet-de/per-group',
'/anonuser2/sub-dir1/sub-dir2/models',
'/anonuser3/downloads',
'*/privat*',
'*/ImapMail',
'*.iso',
'*.ISO',
'*/.macromedia',
'*/.local/share/Trash',
'*.ogg',
'*.OGG',
'*.mp3',
'*.MP3',
'*.mp4',
'*.MP4'
]
};
BackupPC 3.2.1-2ubuntu1.1 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, x86_64
What am I doing wrong?

If redundancy isn't needed you get 10TB for 47,48€ with 20TB free traffic with the biggest hetzner storage box The smaller boxes have a higher cost per GB but a way higher traffic ratio. https://www.hetzner.de/hosting/produktmatrix/storagebox-produktmatrix In the US it is even cheaper: https://www.hetzner.de/us/hosting/produktmatrix/storagebox-produktmatrix Click the flag in the header to choose from different countries. It can live with that as an archive host (and a NAS in another building; internal, 1Gb bandwidth). And we get a monthly bill. That is easier for me at a university than with most cloud vendors -- until recently amazon needed a credit card and I've no interest to pay a middleman. Serverbidding (without setup costs, no minimum contract period) is also more attractive for our workloads than most cloud instances as we keep the hosts for at least a month and traffic is practically free. I've yet to see a financially comparable offer by a cloud vendor. For our use cases (NAS, on demand instances) Amazon is 3-4 times more expensive as soon as traffic between them and our site comes into play. Avoiding that would mean going cloud only -- no, thanks.

Your no. of spindles and the IOPS your setup is able to achieve? You are posting about your network setup first ... and after that you talk about the data on your disc and your backup speed.
