Re: [BackupPC-users] Consecutive BackupPC_archiveStart calling for the same archive host is not executing
The dumps are running perfectly. What I need is to copy the dumps to a NTFS NAS drive (not a NAS server). Tar requires hardlinks to be supported by the destination drive/partition and NTFS NAS does not support it. Archive mode does support NTFS NAS without hardlinks. The archive executes correctly when the three servers are included in the parameter, but execute the ArchivePostUserCmd only once. There is got to be a way to request the archive for each host consecutively. Maybe adding some type of delay between request, but how much? Or other trick? -Original Message- From: Les Mikesell [mailto:lesmikes...@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, December 17, 2009 3:55 PM To: General list for user discussion, questions and support Subject: Re: [BackupPC-users] Consecutive BackupPC_archiveStart calling for the same archive host is not executing Jose Torres wrote: Hello Again!

Why don't you ignore the archive setup and use your own scripts based on BackupPC_tarCreate so you have complete control? -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com -- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev ___ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List:https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki:http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/ -- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev ___ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List:https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki:http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/

Yes, because archives are just an invocation of BackupPC_tarCreate to generate a tar image with some options to pipe through gzip and split. If you are using a script, just do it all in a script and you can do whatever you want. All you are getting out of the archivehost setup is a small pipeline of commands your cron job can execute itself just as well. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com -- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev ___ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List:https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki:http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
Re: [BackupPC-users] Consecutive BackupPC_archiveStart calling for the same archive host is not executing
I will look for a tarCreate example to see if I can mimic the archive agent. The logs at BackupPC are important for me. If not, I guess will post the question again.
