[BackupPC-users] BackupPC_tarCreate Problem

2010-08-11 Thread Stephen Gelman
Hi, I am running BackupPC 3.1.0 on Nexenta. It seems to be working for the most part. I am having a problem with BackupPC_tarCreate. I am trying to create a tar of a 30gb backup. The tar I create ends up being 30gb, but when extracted it only takes up 5gb and is missing a lot of files.
