Dear community,
I am more or less lurking on this mailing list. I am also trying to
maintain unofficial BackupPC Debian packages, see
https://github.com/backuppc/backuppc/wiki/Build-Your-Own-Packages
First off: How do I prevent nightly cleanups to mess with the data in
the pool? I currently have stopped the BackupPC process.
Yesterday, I performed maintenance work on my backup server incl.
building 4.4.0 Debian packages, upgrading my own server & rebooting the
system.
I now have one host where the old backups vanished from the UI i.e. #0
(Full) is the current backup.
However, in the filesystem I see all the old backups in
$Conf{TopDir}/pc/$host/:
find pc/$host/ -maxdepth 1 -type d | wc -l
103
After upgrading BackupPC & before rebooting, I tested my new package by
trying to do Incremental backups of said host.
FYI: I had an issue with missing +x flags on the binaries (my own
wrong-doing) and thus I had to upgrade the package & initiate the backup
a couple of times.
Last but not least, there is a small chance that I rebooted at an
inconvenient time, i.e. during some house keeping?
Any help would be appreciated. Also, how do I prevent nightly cleanups
to mess with the data in the pool?
