Re: [BackupPC-users] Backuppc restore freezing
Hi, Are you using sudo with rsync? As described here: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/faq/ssh.html#how_can_client_access_as_root_be_avoided The permission issue in the log below, and the fact that temp directories work point at this possibility.

[BackupPC-users] Backuppc restore freezing
This issue, is also causing newly installed systems to break. I can see that certain files are getting restored, but many installed programs are getting broken (in other words, they are being rendered unusable through the partial restore). I guess my following question is, is there a better way to monitor this restoration process before I determine it is frozen and thus kill the process. +-- |This was sent by vur...@me.com via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +-- -- Go from Idea to Many App Stores Faster with Intel(R) XDK Give your users amazing mobile app experiences with Intel(R) XDK.

[BackupPC-users] Backuppc restore freezing
I'm using ubuntu across 4 different computers in my network - one of which runs backuppc. Anything over 3-4 files seems to cause bakuppc to freeze. Right now I'm actually trying to restore an entire file system to a computer, but I've noticed the same issue occur trying to restore 4 items in a download directory to a separate computer, no less than 30mb total. What I observe using sudo iftop and sudo htop is my server jumps to uploading 50mb/s for several minutes to the designated computer, and then dropping all connection. On top, I see at the same time of the drop, the process stops using the CPU and process up time just pauses and doesn't change after hours. Thus, on the web GUI it looks like the process is running, through htop it looks like the process has frozen. The systems hardware should not be limited enough to cause such freeze ups. How can I diagnose this? +-- |This was sent by vur...@me.com via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +-- -- Go from Idea to Many App Stores Faster with Intel(R) XDK Give your users amazing mobile app experiences with Intel(R) XDK.
