Thanks for that but as per Backuppc' instructions this would increase drastically the storage space up to when the full circle is achieved and the non-compressed files are deleted from the pool. That is why the program recommends disabling the backup, change the compression value to >0, run the script that should move the files to the compressed pool and only then restart the backup process.
This is what I'd like to do

To get a bash shell as user backuppc (which normally doesn't have a shell) you'd do something like the following:

    # su -s /bin/bash - backuppc

(Use sudo where applicable. :o) )
