It would appear that I have a feasible number of files. I'm not sure how
many more files I will have by the end of April, though.
I've read about that "rsync -H" would be a practical command to use on the
backuppc folder.
What I'm also curious about is if I should

complete, it was under 125 gigs...

On Debian, simply re-installing the backuppc-package does not recreate
folders in /var/lib/backuppc, like pc, cpool, pool etc.
You'll have to remove/p
hi,
Right from the documentation:
For each complete, good, backup, BackupPC_link is run. To avoid race
conditions as new files are linked into the pool area, only a single
BackupPC_link program runs at a time and the rest are queued.
BackupPC_link reads the NewFileList written by BackupPC_dump

rsync'ing the BackupPC data pool is generally recommended against
So i have this server that started its backup at 10pm Yesterday. The logs
below say it finished @ 1:52, however on the status page it still shows that
its running and that it started at 5:50 am, my server has a high load with a
PID that accompanies the backup process for the server being backed up
