Hi,
I'm in the process of a clean install of BackupPC (latest version) on
a CentOS 5.2 system, to backup a pool of 3 machines (the BackupPC
machine itself is a fileserver with ~500gigs of data presently to be
backed up; then 2 other linux servers with small assorted homedir data
to grab)
Initiall
Hi,
I'm running BackupPC 3.0.0 under Ubuntu. I'm having problems similar
to the ones some people have had with 3.1.0 on XFS, but I also did
some other odd things before this started happening, so I want to
relate the whole scenario, in case I did something else to break it.
I accidentally corrup
I've gone through all the How-tos and googled but I cannot get backup PC to
successfully run. I am using the smb method and trying to setup a test method
from my laptop I use to configure the server (8.10). I have removed the "-N"
flag from the backuppc config. file SmbClientFullCmd, etc. of th
Hello Thomas,
Did the BackupPC_nightly jobs take 22 hours on the 17th as well? If
they didn't, I would suspect that since you restored the TopDir from a
tarball, that the hardlinking wasn't handled correctly in the tar
compression. BackupPC_nightly would have been re-establishing the

Hi,
No, it continues to take 22 hours or so each day.

You could solve this by using '/' (or '*', which sets excludes for all
shares don't have any specific excludes set) as the share name and
specifying a list of directories not to backup as the value:
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = {
'*' => [
'/media/*',

How is your XFS volume mounted? Did you add the "noatime" and
"nodiratime" directives? If you have battery backed storage, I would
highly recommend using "nobarrier" as well

Hello, I want to backup my localhost completely and just backup the root folder
with some excludes (proc, sys, media and backuppc pool folder). Backup was
successful, but if I look at the error log file there are a lot of "Permission
denied" errors for the home folders, some files in the /root/

Hi everyone, thanks for the help!
Today around noon I remounted the backup disk with noatime, and then
it only took another three hours, rather than another 10, which is
exciting. I just remounted with nodiratime so we'll see if that makes
any difference in tonight's run.
I'm pretty sure that th

centos5.2 server.
I guess on all the windows nodes, i would need to install cygwin+rsync. But how
does the client initiate the backups ? Can i configure it to backup once a day
or during logout/ shutdown ?
OR is it
