Re: [BackupPC-users] BackupPC writes to disk very slow

Ari, I have been using BackupPC successfully with ZFS On Linux for a few years now. This was simply convenient as I had a lot of old hardware with 3TB drives that I was able to repurpose for the task. We have about a dozen hosts with either ~60TB or ~160TB usable in Raid Z1+spare.

[BackupPC-users] Rsync issue

2018-10-04 Thread Bedynek, Matthew J.
All, Am using BackupPC 4.2.1 on a Redhat 7.5 host to backup a rather large repository of data. I believe things worked OK with tar but after we changed the file system we switched back to Rsync. I think we have plenty of others which roughly equal in size but backup fine. Not sure if

> It's possible to replicate backuppc on datacenter ? I do not replicate them using zsend but I do run about a dozen hosts with a mixture of V3 and v4 with ZFS on Linux. If built out right you can get good I/O performance on ZFS for Backups.

Thanks for trying to get some debug log files. I was able to reproduce the problem, and I just pushed a fix (maybe not the final one) to git. Could you please test that change? You can either apply the diff (see below), manually replace

[BackupPC-users] BackupPC 4.1.1 and NFS shares

2017-04-21 Thread Bedynek, Matthew J.
All, With version 3 I am using Rsync instead of tar to backup a NFS share which the backupPC host has direct access to. This has worked great with the exception that linking takes forever if there are a large number of files. I simply didn’t have much luck getting version 3 to work with tar
