[BackupPC-users] Large file backup problem (12GB)
I apologise if my question is answered before (I didnt find it) I have a problem when BackupPC (3.2.1) tries to backup a large file, about 12GB in size. I use a CentOS BackupPC server backing up an CentOS client with rsync over ssh. I first saw this using CentOS 5 and rsync 2.x, I therefore upgraded to CentOS 6 which has rsync 3.x as google search indicated there might be an issue with rsync that was fixed in 3.0X? But the problem still exists ... More details; The source file (ls l) on the client; -rwxr- 1 user1 server 12773621760 Feb 4 2011 2010-12-19 Huge HD recording 2010.m2ts The transfer of date does not stop, and I had to stop it manually when the backup file reached ~1/2 TB on the BackupPC server (in the TopDir/pc structure); -rw-r- 1 backuppc backuppc 499482475314 Aug 31 11:59 f2010-12-19 Huge HD recording 2010.m2ts I dont know the processes involved, but it seemed to me that /usr/share/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC_dump was the process writing to the 1/2 TB file (just guessing here?) I have other of size up to 6GB where the backup succeeds, where are the limitations above that? But where is this limitation, is it BackupPC, rsync or?

[BackupPC-users] Set up a schedule
Hi! I'm starting using BackupPC with XferMethod rsync to backup a CentOS server and 4 WinXP clients. Since BackupPC uses pooling I wanted this; - Backup each day, so that I can pick files 30 days back in time. - Monthly backup - Yearly backup Now, I thought of using full backup to implement this, but I guess that BackupPC transfers all files even if they are already backed up ? (Pooling and stuff are done afterwards?) Should I then do 1 full backup, and only increment (for a whole year) afterwards? How do I set this up (the schedule) ? - This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event. There's still time to save $100.
