Rsync directly links from one backup to the next.

This is a bug in 2.1.2 which is fixed in cvs.

[BackupPC-users] HardLinkMax not working?

2006-05-01 Thread David Mansfield

Hi everyone.

I have a file in the cpool with 32000 links.  HardLinkMax is set to 
31999.  Let's assume this is exactly correct, because one link is 
reserved for the 'pool'.


However, last night during the second full backup ever for this host, I 
got the following kind of error 24081 times:


Unable to link 
/data/pc/terranova/0/f%2f/fexport/fsmbshare/fpcdrive/fdwiech/fjesse/fcvswork/fpwstat/fCVS/fRoot 
to 
/data/pc/terranova/new//f%2f/fexport/fsmbshare/fpcdrive/fdwiech/fjesse/fcvswork/fpwstat/fCVS/fRoot


The file is a 'cvsroot' file, 'sandbox/module/CVS/Root', and since the 
same exact file exists in every subdirectory of every checked out 
project for every user on our system, this files gets a TON of links.


Does the above mean that the HardLinkMax isn't working for a subsequent 
full backup of an existing host?


Note: the link that is failing is NOT from the pool to a backup 
directory, but from one backup directory to another.
