Hi,
I've split backups to a particular laptop host into parts as the whole
lot together takes too long to run, and so never completes as the laptop
is regularly disconnected.
This seems to work ok, except they often are run concurrently by
BackupPC. Is there an easy way to prevent these parts run
Holger,
I started to reply to your e-mail but my system crashed. The messages
log suggests that backuppc may have been the culprit. See below.

Ah - I missed that it was in the Archive-specific configuration section but
just noticed it. That makes sense.
Incidentally, the '-9' gzip takes a bit more CPU but isn't
substantially more effective. Since CPU isn't exactly lacking in this
case it is cranked to -9 just to
save any disk space possib

You should be able to access it now. It was from 2/13/2009, so it may be
a little off by now.

Here is the scenario I want to set up:
instance #1: "normal" - backup of user PC's and some of localhost to
local server. Running now, very happy.
instance #2: What I want. use sshfs to mount a remote drive (presumably
through $conf{DumpPreUserCmd} ??), use BackupPC to backup specific files

I am setting up a secondary backup server that will backup the contents of
our BackupPC server. My solution is to use tarCreate to create a tar file
which I will then rsync to the 2nd backup server. I cannot get the
tarCreate command to work.
I want to check the status and see what it is going to

I'm using tar but I am backing up the local machine. Here are the notes
I wrote myself when I set this up a couple of years
Backuppc has been behaving strangely lately. This is another instance.
This is part of the log file for host steve:
2009-08-12 01:00:06 full backup started for directory /
2009-08-12 01:00:06 full backup started for directory /
2009-08-12 05:00:06 Rename /media/disk/pc/steve/new
