I have a situation here. I installed and upgraded BackupPC 7 and 3 months ago, repectively, and have since rarely touched the thing. I know when I did the upgrade I did something with the pool directories. If my memory serves me correctly I believe I moved them from /home/backuppc/pc to /home/backuppc, although i could have done the reverse (apologies for the spacyness), and did some string replacement on /usr/share/backuppc/bin replacing all instances of 'pc/ cpool' with '/cpool'. In any event, my current situation is that I currently have both directories /home/backuppc/cpool and /home/ backuppc/pc/pool (no more pool?) in existence, $TopDir is set to / home/backuppc in /etc/config.pl, the current size of /home/backuppc/ cpool is 0, and despite having everything that I can see in the config scripts/perl files referencing /home/backuppc/cppool nothing is backing up there. Everything is still going to /home/backuppc/pc/ cpool. This has caused me to recently go into /usr/share/backuppc/ bin/BackupPC_nightly and change $TopDir to /home/backuppc/pc/cpool in order to clean some old backups out. I didn't look at this thing for a while and my disk all filled up.
I would like to tidy up this install and have both cpool and trash residing in /home/backuppc. Does anyone have any idea why data is not currently being placed in /home/backuppc/cpool and still going into /home/backuppc/pc/cpool? I have even tried backing up brand new boxes and have had the same results Thanks Matthew ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
