Re: [BackupPC-users] Execute script before backup
On 17/12/14 07:50, Ibon Castilla wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi again, I have tested the workaround proposed by Colin, and I have a comment and a question about it: * Comment: the idea was to use BackupPC_serverMesg to launch the backup, and then use that command again to test if the server ended that backup successfully. I've realized that the command just tells the server to launch the backup, but it really doesn't do that action by itself, so I have to ask to the server many times if the backup has finished yet. Instead of BackupPC_serverMesg I've decided to use BackupPC_dump, because this one does the backup by itself. This way, when it finishes a backup I can set down the VPN tunnel without asking the server. * Question: to use BackupPC_dump, the host must be defined on the host file. This way BackupPC will try to back it up as a regular host, and to avoid that I've been trying to use $Conf{BackupsDisable} on my_host.pl file. If I set that parameter to 1 or 2, then BackupPC_dump complains about it, saying that the host is configured to avoid backups. Is there a way to set up the configuration of my_host and at the same time avoid BackupPC to back ip up as a regular host, and just when I want to do it manually?. You might be better to leave the backups enabled and just increase the ages (FullPeriod and IncrPeriod) from 6.97 and 0.97 respectively, to something a little higher, that way the backuppc won't attempt to backup the host as long as your scheduled task is working. That said, there was a follow-up from Les Mikesell that might work better. Cheers, Colin Cheers, Ibon. Abrazo, Ibon.

Re: [BackupPC-users] Using NFS to increase backup speed

Hi Mauro, Whilst I've not had any experience installing/running BackupPC on a NAS, I would suggest that you look to pick up something more suitable to the task - something like an HP Microserver would be much more capable of the job, a bit more flexible in terms adding more disks, and probably about the same price.
