So, if you wanted to copy the entire /var/lib/backuppc
hmm, i rather expect the pool check doesn't follow all the transfers,
rather is interleaved with the transfers, if i'm right the temporary
ballooning you describe should not occur other than a file at a time.

Robin, can you just clarify the context. Did this apparent pool

occur in the course of normal backuppc running.

Only works if you have identical disks, which is hard when you've
got a few TiB on a SAN.
In practice, rsync -H is the reasonable way to do what you're

We aren't; we have 6.
The *smallest* is about 4 TiB if disk, most of it in use.
